Buying In. The secret dialogue between what we buy and who we are. Rob Walker<\/a>. 2008. ISBN 978\u00a0 Quite the author, he is able to link cool hunting, trend setting, media watching and even William Gibson<\/a> around branding today.\u00a0 If you want to really feel like an isolated fossil, some of the discussion of “famous” brands will age you.\u00a0 I saw some of what he is talking about on Lincoln Ave in Miami Beach. But I did not know what I was looking at!\u00a0 In discussions with a local artist I am learning just how true a story this book is telling.\u00a0 If you care about getting generational buy into your company or product, this book is required reading (just like No Logo<\/a> was) . Good airplane read, logical and well written ( well he is a NY Times<\/a> columnist)<\/p>\n
