David%20Report.jpgOK, this is not product news, but this is such a creat report that I wanted to draw your attention to it. The David Report latest issue “I shop therefore I am” looks into the world of consumer culture from different point of views; ethical, social, political, economical and humanistic.

The authors say, "Shopping has turned into a lifestyle. We consume as leisure and a way to pass time. But at the same time many are realizing that the power of consumption is stopping us from finding true and sincere happiness; and that shopping often works as a substitute for something that we’re missing in life. At what point does the accumulation of material goods become less fulfilling and more stressful and overwhelming?"
