Book Synopsis Conspicuous Consumption by : Thorstein Veblen
Book excerpt: With its wry portrayal of a shallow, materialistic 'leisure class' obsessed by clothes, cars, consumer goods and climbing the social ladder, this withering satire on modern capitalism is as pertinent today as when it was written over a century ago.
