Becky has never been more excited. Finally, a real sister! They`ll have so much in common! They can go shopping together… choose shoes together… have manicures together… Until she meets her - and gets the shock of her life. It can`t be true.

Description: Sophie Kinsella has conquered the hearts of millions with her New York Times bestselling Shopaholic novels, which feature the irresistible one-woman shopping phenomenon Becky Bloomwood. Now Becky’s back in a hilarious, heartwarming tale of married life, best friends, and long-lost sisters (and the perils of simply having to own an Angel handbag!). What’s a round-the-world honeymoon if you can’t buy the odd souvenir to ship back home? Like the Chinese urns and twenty silk dressing gowns Becky found in Hong Kong…the five kilim rugs from Turkey…the splendid hand-carved dining table (and ten chairs) from Sri Lanka…the, um, huge wooden giraffes from Malawi (that her husband Luke expressly forbade her to buy)… Only now Becky and Luke have returned home to London and Luke is furious. Two truckloads of those souvenirs have cluttered up their usually immaculate loft, and the bills for them are outrageous. Becky’s even maxed out… [detailed...]

2002 y.
Publisher: Black Swan
Description: For once in Becky Bloomwood`s life, things are going smoothly. She`s got the dream job as a personal shopper (spending other people`s money - and getting paid for it.) She`s got a fabulous Manhattan apartment with her boyfriend Luke. They`ve even opened a joint bank account (although they can`t quite agree on whether a Miu Miu skirt counts as a household expense). Then Luke proposes - and all of a sudden life gets hectic. Becky`s Mum wants her to get married in Oxshott and wear her old frilly wedding dress. Luke`s mother wants to host a grand extravaganza at the New York Plaza, complete with woodland glade and the New York Philharmonic. Becky knows she has to sit down and decide - but to be honest, it`s a lot more fun tasting cake, trying on dresses and registering wedding presents. Time`s ticking by, plans are being made both sides of the Atlantic and soon she realises she`s in trouble… Издание на английском языке. Формат: 10,5 см х 18 см. [detailed...]

Shopfloor Matters: Labor-Management Relations in Twentieth-Century American Manufacturing (Routledge Studies in Business Organizations and Networks, 5)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The success of Japanese manufacturing has frequently been explained by its innovations in work organization and industrial relations at the plant level. Conversely, it is widely argued that Western countries struggle to introduce more flexible ways of working because of a prior history of industrial conflict. This book argues for a more nuanced view of US labor history. Two views of employment relations dominate: a liberal one, emphasizing mutually-advantageous institutions reforms, and a Marxist one, emphasizing conflict. Despite the differences between these two, both are necessary to understand the evolution of shopfloor relations. [detailed...]

Shopping Our Way to Safety: How We Changed from Protecting the Environment to Protecting Ourselves

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Many Americans today rightly fear that they are constantly exposed to dangerous toxins in their immediate environment: tap water is contaminated with chemicals, foods contain pesticide residues, hormones, and antibiotics, even the air we breathe, outside and indoors, carries invisible poisons. Yet we have responded not by pushing for governmental regulation, but instead by shopping. What accounts for this swift and dramatic response? And what are its unintended consequences?Andrew Szasz examines this phenomenon in Shopping Our Way to Safety. Within a couple of decades, he reveals, bottled water and water filters, organic food, “green” household cleaners and personal hygiene products, and “natural” bedding and clothing have gone from being marginal, niche commodities to becoming mass consumer items. Szasz sees these fatalistic, individual responses to collective environmental threats as an inverted form of quarantine, aiming to shut the healthy individual in and the threatening world… [detailed...]

Shopping at Giant Foods: Chinese American Supermarkets in Northern California (The Scott and Laurie Oki Series on Asian American Studies)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFrom the 1930s through the 1970s, Chinese American owned supermarkets located outside of Chinatown, catering to a non-Chinese clientele, and featuring mainstream American foods and other products and services rose to prominence and phenomenal success in Northern California, only to decline as union regulations and competition from national chains made their operation unprofitable. Alfred Yee?s study of this trajectory is an insider?s view of a fascinating era in Asian American immigration and entrepreneurship. Drawing on oral interviews with individuals who worked in the business during its peak and decline, he presents an accessible history that illustrates how this once-thriving business fostered the social and economic integration of Chinese Americans into life in the United States. Yee demonstrates how Chinese American supermarkets were able to sell American groceries at reduced prices by using the cheap labor of family members and Chinese immigrants… [detailed...]

Shopping for Identity: The Marketing of Ethnicity

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In America today, you can connect to your ethnic heritage in dozens of ways, or adopt an identity just for an evening. Our society is not a melting pot but a salad bar--a bazaar in which the purveyors of goods and services spend close to $2 billion a year marketing the foods, clothing, objects, vacations, and events that help people express their (and others`) ethnic identities. This is a huge business, whose target groups are the `hyphenated Americans`--in other words, all of us. As immigrant groups gain economic security, they tend to reinforce--not relinquish--their ethnic identification. Marilyn Halter demonstrates that, to a great extent, they do it by shopping. And their purchasing power is enormous. How has the marketplace responded to thishunger? Instantly and wholeheartedly: tweaking old products and inventing new ones, launching new brands in supermarkets, new music groups, vacation itineraries, language courses, toys, greeting cards, et cetera. This nexus of business… [detailed...]

Rappaport illuminates the various forces of the period that encouraged and discouraged women`s enjoyment of public life and particularly shows how shopping came to be seen as the quintessential leisure activity for middle- and upper-class women. Through extensive histories of department stores, women`s magazines, clubs, teashops, restaurants, and the theater as interwoven sites of consumption, Shopping for Pleasure uncovers how a new female urban culture emerged before and after the turn of the twentieth century. Moving beyond the question of whether shopping promoted or limited women`s freedom, the author… [detailed...]

Shopping in the Renaissance: Consumer Cultures in Italy, 1400-1600

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Shopping was as important in the Renaissance as it is today. This fascinating and original book breaks new ground in the area of Renaissance material culture, focusing on the marketplace and such related topics as middle-class to courtly consumption, the provision of foodstuffs, and the acquisition of antiquities and holy relics. The book investigates how men and women of different social classes went to the streets, squares, and shops to buy goods they needed and wanted on a daily—or a once-in-a-lifetime—basis, during the Renaissance period. Evelyn Welch draws on wide-ranging sources to expose the fears, anxieties, and social possibilities of the Renaissance marketplace and to show the impact of these attitudes on developing urban spaces. She considers transient forms of sales such as fairs, auctions, and lotteries as well as consumers themselves. Finally, she explores antiquities and indulgences, both of which posed dramatic challenges to contemporary notions of… [detailed...]

Shore Processes and their Palaeoenvironmental Applications, Volume 4 (Developments in Marine Geology)

Description: The last five years have been marked by rapid technological and analytical developments in the study of shore processes and in the comprehension of shore deposits and forms, and shoreline change over time. These developments have generated a considerable body of literature in a wide range of professional journals, thus illustrating the cross-disciplinary nature of shore processes and the palaeo-environmental dimension of shore change. The justification of the book lies in bringing together these developments using an objective approach that synthesises current advances, technical progress in the analysis of shores and shore processes, contradictory interpretations, and potential advances using future-generation developments in techniques. The book provides a comprehensive state-of-the-art presentation of shore processes and deposits across ranges of wave energy and tide-range environments, sediment supply and textural conditions, sea-level change, exceptional events and longer-term… [detailed...]

Shore of Pearls: Hainan Island in Early Times

Description: Hainan Island is the southernmost extent of what is now People`s Republic of China. Today the island is strategically important for its geographic position and its rich mineral and oil resources, and economically important as a thriving tropical resort. Historically, however, Hainan had been regarded as a backwater by successive Chinese dynasties. In Shore of Pearls the eminent Sinologist Edward Schafer recounts the history and culture of the island, annexed during the reign of Han emperor Wu Di in 111 BC, when Chinese armies defeated its indigenous Li people. Pearl gathering became an important industry, and this treasure island also yielded other luxury goods prized by the Chinese court, including incense, medicinal herbs precious metals, tortoise shell, ivory, and exotic woods. However, the difficulty of colonizing and exploiting Hainan`s riches changed its reputation from a treasure island to one of a dank, poisonous land unfit for normal men, and it later became a place of… [detailed...]

Shore to Shore: The Politics of Migration in Euro-Maghreb Relations

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: `In a lucid and balanced study, Sarah Collinson shows that policies on both sides of the Mediterranean are marked by a degree of dissimulation and a lack of common purpose. Europe and the Maghreb, she argues, ought to be able to do better than a concealed trade-off between physical immigration controls and compensatory aid. A welcome antidote to immigration hysteria.` Martin Woollacott, The Guardian Shore to Shore demonstrates how EU policy toward the Maghreb has become increasingly defined by anxiety about the potential for rising migration levels from North Africa into Europe. By examining the `hidden` civil war in Algeria, the rise of extreme right-wing political movements in western Europe, and moves to create a Euro-Mediterranean`free trade` area, Collinson illustrates the profound influence of the migration issue on political and security relations between the two regions in the 1990s.
