Reviews
'Stephen Kline's study of the politics of risk discourse and the globesity 'epidemic' takes us beyond the tired reliance on moral panics and sanctimonious finger waving by demonstrating how a thoughtful, deft analysis of social problems can open up possibilities of new approaches and ways of seeing children's consumer empowerment.' - Daniel Thomas Cook, Department of Childhood Studies, Rutgers University, USA 'Steve Kline's new book provides a richly detailed historical perspective, which sets the present debates about food marketing in context through his meticulous and wide-ranging scholarship. In his hands the "Globesity epidemic" becomes a window onto a much larger scene where parents and children need to navigate a sensible take on a vast array of personal and risky choices, while being surrounded on all sides by the competing pressures of commercial interests and government policy responses.'- William Leiss, University of Ottawa, Canada 'Steve Kline has an aptitude for provoking us to look at children's consumerism in a different way as he unpacks the complex interplay between food marketing, family lifestyle and the neoliberal marketplace. Based on sound theory and original empirical work this book offers a fresh perspective on the medicalised discourses on globesity' forcing us to rethink our moral panic about children's time spent in front of the TV screen.' - David Marshall, Professor of Marketing and Consumer Behaviour, University of Edinburgh Business School, UK

Synopsis
This book examines the public controversies surrounding lifestyle risks in the consumer society. Comparing news coverage of the 'globesity' pandemic in Britain and the USA, it illustrates the way moral panic brought children's food marketing to the centre of the policy debates about consumer lifestyles., The growing public awareness of lifestyle risks associated with children's consumer empowerment is at the heart of this book which uses a comparative news analysis to compare the discursive politics surrounding the 'globesity pandemic' in North America and the UK. Focusing on the role that epidemiological advocacy played in galvanizing moral panic about the weight gain in child populations, this study examines how this medicalization of lifestyle choices re-ignited deeply held public debates about children's commercial TV and its disturbance of patterns of domestic consumption. The globesity pandemic therefore renewed one of the most profound challenges to neo-liberalism that exists ' the vulnerable child consumer. Exploring empirically children's special status as 'vulnerable' consumers, this book provides new evidence of both the systemic bias created by food marketing in the USA and the UK, as well as the processes through which marketing comes to influence children's discretionary choices in the context of branding and parental mitigation of lifestyle risk taking., This book examines the public controversies surrounding lifestyle risks in the consumer society. Comparing news coverage of the 'globesity' pandemic in Britain and the USA, it illustrates the way moral panic brought children's food marketing to the centre of the policy debates about consumer lifestyles.

- u***u (727)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoCarefully packaged book- arrived wrapped in plastic bag and shipped in cardboard box. As a frequent book buyer I appreciate this as so many books are just crammed into a plastic shopping bag and sent on their way- sometimes always hanging out of the bag. I know that Midtown Book Seller books will arrive as described. Shipped promptly. I’d highly recommend them as a seller.
- 9***n (325)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoExcellent experience with this eBay used book seller! The books arrived in perfect condition, as described, and their pristine condition exceeded my expectations. What impressed me most was the speed of shipping: the book arrived much earlier than expected. Furthermore, the packaging was careful and professional, ensuring the book arrived undamaged. Thanks a lot! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
- c***i (102)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoBook was in very good condition as described in the listing. It looked almost new, in fact, but the pages did have some yellowing around the edges, a sign of its age. The seller did an excellent job of wrapping and packing the book for shipment, which I greatly appreciate! He has earned his 100% feedback rating, I'd say. I'm extremely pleased with the seller and this transaction. Thank you!
