Summary
Penguin presents No Logo by Naomi Klein, read by Nicola Barber
No logo employs journalistic savvy and personal testament to detail the insidious practices and far-reaching effects of corporate marketing - and the powerful potential of a growing activist sect that will surely alter the course of the 21st Century. This is an infuriating, inspiring, and altogether pioneering work of cultural criticism that investigates money, marketing and the anti-corporate movement.
As global corporations compete for the hearts and wallets of consumers who not only buy their products but willingly advertise them from head to toe a new generation has begun to battle consumerism with its own best weapons.
In this provocative study we learn how the Nike swoosh has changed from an athletic, status-symbol to a metaphor for sweatshop labour, how teenaged McDonald's workers are risking their jobs to join the Teamsters, and how culture jammers utilise spray paint, computer hacking acumen and anti-propagandist wordplay to undercut the slogans and meanings of billboard ads.

Breathing ruins the listening experience
Great book so prescient but the sharp intakes of breath by the narrator are really unnerving. I have never had this problem before I’ve listened to hundreds of audiobooks I don’t think I can finish it it’s raising my heart rate

Great book. Well written. Well read.
This book works very well as an audiobook. It's well read and easy to follow. if you've been thinking about reading this book and don't know whether to read it with your ears or your eyes, then I highly recommend this version. Just get ready to enjoy the irony of getting your anti-corporation book from Amazon/Audible...

Still very relevant in 2023
I really liked the in-depth journalism and insight into the antecedents and growth of globilisation.

Still relevant
If you haven’t read this then do so. How little has changed. Would be interesting to read an update on how the internet has changed things

A non fiction classic and still as relevant now
A remarkably good insight into the world of brand building. Anyone serious about a carrier leading a business should read this and reject on their methods and measures of success

No Logo
This is another piece of Naomi Klein in which she written extensively about corporations and how buyers and legal systems can make an impact on changing things to the better.
I live her style of writing and her honest approach.
