Geoffrey Miller is an evolutionary psychologist
and author of The Mating Mind. He was educated at
Columbia and Stanford and is associate professor of
psychology at the University of New Mexico. He lives
in Albuquerque, New Mexico, with his wife, daughter,
and many products.
Evolutionary psychology—the compelling science
of human nature—has clarified the prehistoric origins
of human behavior and influenced many fields ranging
from economics to personal relationships. In Spent
Geoffrey Miller applies this revolutionary science’s
principles to a new domain: the sensual wonderland
of marketing and status seeking that we call American
consumer culture. Starting with the basic notion that
the goods and services we buy unconsciously advertise
our biological potential as mates and friends, Miller
examines the hidden factors that dictate our choices in
everything from lipstick to cars, from the magazines
we read to the music we listen to. With humor and
insight, Miller analyzes an array of product choices
and deciphers what our decisions say about ourselves,
giving us access to a new way of understanding—and
improving—our behaviors. Like Freakonomics or The
Tipping Point, Spent is a bold and revelatory book that
illuminates the unseen logic behind the chaos of consumerism
and suggests new ways we can become happier
consumers and more responsible citizens.
A leading evolutionary
psychologist probes the hidden
instincts behind our working,
shopping, and spending

评分味同嚼蜡的看完了,不仅行文晦涩,关键在于似乎作者是故意为之!他希望通过他的大量准备跨越诸多学术领域的知识再配上一个商业味十足的商业类领域的书名,可以让他的著作独树一帜!不过文中他的观点还是漏洞颇多,论证的过程根本不够严谨细致,靠四处引用名家观点、出处并不能...
评分这本书是之前在上《跨文化心理学》讲到大五人格的时候老师推荐的,买了快一年了,一直放在家里,这次疫情在家里偶然翻到,就拿出来看看。但赶上论文、实习、毕业,快两个月才读完。今天终于有时间整理出来。 这是一本整体关于消费主义研究的书,只有在第二部分探究人类的根本消...
评分如果人类学业是一种宗教的话,我想,Geoffrey Miller的书就是对某种宗教的幽默、渎神。 当然,大多数宗教都是需要异教徒的。 所以,这种幽默与渎神也许是一种生命力吧。 对交配权的争夺其实是整个文明开端以及发展的直观原因,这是不能忽略的。在这个前提下,Geoffrey Miller...
浅显的道理反过来复过去说倒也能说出点老太婆的肚皮来啊——净道道儿~
