Description: This powerful examination of the effects of hyperconsumerism on contemporary life provides a comprehensive look at how choices affect the balance between work and life in society. Using past experiences, the author explores issues that concern many and asks the question, Is it possible to have too much choice? With detail and insight, the guide analyses a world full of information at the click of a search engine, where libraries are unused, travellers see the world but never speak another language and employees work on short-term contracts never knowing their colleagues. Passionate and powerful, ""This Restless Life"" is a gripping combination of memoir and social critique, looking without blame at the effects of hypercapitalism on Generation Y.
