Description
While many books have offered simple complaints of the power of McDonald’s, Joe Kincheloe explores the real ways McDonald’s affects us. And we travel with him around the world to see how this approach of the modern affects other people, either through excitement or through attempts at resisting McDonald’s power, often in unfortunate ways. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
