America"s Moral |
|
| Anyone who watches television or goes to the movies is aware that traditional moral standards are out of place in Hollywood��셲 version of America. Television shows like Desperate Housewives and The Sopranos, and films like Brokeback Mountain would make you think traditional standards of fidelity, honesty, and sexuality are as out-of-step with 21st century America as horse collars and mechanical adding machines. But do Hollywood��셲 products reflect cultural values in the real world? |

Digital Books Start |
|
| Since at least the 1960s and possibly earlier, we��셶e been hearing predictions about the demise of paper. Xerox famously, and disastrously, attempted to create the ��쐏aperless office��� in the 1970s. If anything, we use more paper now than ever, owing to the ease of running off copies with laser printers and copiers. |

The Media Transforma |
|
| To understand where we��셱e going, it helps to understand where we��셶e been. If you bought a new car 10 years ago, it came standard with a cassette deck, but a CD player was a somewhat expensive option. If you buy a new car today, it comes standard with a high-end CD player, but a cassette tape deck is an expensive and almost useless option. The cassette tape, which revolutionized the way we listen to and share music with others, is dead. |

The Great Global Con |
|
| Most companies rely on about 14 percent of the world萸� population ?the consumers with per capita spending power of $10,000 per year or greater ?to drive their revenues. Unfortunately, for the foreseeable future, growth in the population of affluent developed economies like the U.S., Japan, and the EU will be stagnant or declining. Fortunately, another 1.5 billion consumers will 諛팵erge?over the next five years, representing the largest consumption boom in human history. |
