br. La pubblicità, specchio necessariamente infedele del mondo che ci circonda, sa come alimentare desideri suscitando emozioni. L'autrice di questo libro, grande esperta di comunicazione, accompagna con competente leggerezza il lettore alla scoperta delle tecniche, delle strategie, delle regole del gioco e dei velocissimi cambiamenti oggi in atto. Spiega come nasce una decisione d'acquisto, racconta l'evoluzione della pubblicità dagli avvisi del '600 ai messaggi online di adesso, ci guida tra utenti, media, agenzie e gruppi multinazionali offrendo dati aggiornati e informazioni utili a capire le dinamiche del settore. Poi ci introduce nei luoghi dove nascono le campagne pubblicitarie spiegando quali sono - dagli account ai creativi, ai planner le figure professionali coinvolte, e come si progetta un annuncio o uno spot.

A very rare copy of this, the first appearance of chapter seven, The Crisis of 1878, of Ida Tarbell's ground-breaking History of the Standard Oil Company. This feature of 16 pages includes photos of: the company's tank farm at Olean, NY; John L. McKinney; Torpedoed oil wells with side-flow and upright flow; A.J. Cassatt; M.N. Allen; a 25,000 oil tank on fire; and a one-page illustration of the hanging in effigy of "Buck" McCandless. With this work, Tarbell invented what we know today as investigative journalism. She was motivated to expose the methods of J.D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil as she felt he had unfairly damaged her father's oil business. The New York University Department of Journalism ranked this study as the fifth best work of 20th-century American journalism. Also contained in this issue is a most scathing 15-page photo-illustrated article on the corruption pervasive in Pittsburgh, PA. Also included is a 9-page article entitled Waifs of the (New York) Street which describes, with illustrations, the heart-breaking life of children forced to work as 'newsboys, peddlers, messengers, and bootblacks that swarm by day and night through every crowded street of busy New York.' Binding intact. Unmarked. Above-average wear. This copy lacks: covers; backstrip; pages 1-2 (title page and first half of table of contents); Advertising pages 133-136. Book
A very rare copy of this, the first appearance of A Modern War For Independence, Chapter 6 of Part 2 of Ida Tarbell's ground-breaking History of the Standard Oil Company. This 18-page chapter deals with the united opposition of producers which developed against J.D. Rockefeller's heavy-handed dominance of their industry. Illustrated with photos of A.D. Wood, Lewis Emery Jr., Thomas W. Phillips, Peter Theobald, E.H. Jennings, David Kirk, Michael Murphy, James W. Lee, Hugh King, and Clarence Walker. With this work, Tarbell invented what is known today as investigative journalism. She was motivated to expose the methods of J.D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil as she felt he had unfairly damaged her father's oil business. The New York University Department of Journalism ranked this study as the fifth best work of 20th-century American journalism. Also included is a fascinating illustrated article by P.T. McGrath entitled The Peril of the Icebergs which discusses the horrors of ships colliding with icebergs, strongly foreshadowing the Titanic disaster eight years later. Dozens of glorious illustrated ads. Binding intact. Unmarked. Average wear. Lacking covers, backstrip, and half of page 85 which contained ads. A worthy vintage copy. Book
A very rare copy of this, the first appearance of Cutting to Kill, Chapter 3 of Part 2 of Ida Tarbell's ground-breaking History of the Standard Oil Company. This 14-page chapter deals with J.D. Rockefeller's fervent desire to learn every detail of the oil trade, to be able to reach its remotest point, to control even its weakest factor - as this was his ideal of doing business. Illustrated with facsimiles of documents. With this work, Tarbell invented what we know today as investigative journalism. She was motivated to expose the methods of J.D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil as she felt he had unfairly damaged her father's oil business. The New York University Department of Journalism ranked this study as the fifth best work of 20th-century American journalism. Also included is an intersting article by Ray Stannard Baker which examines the corner in labor in San Francisco, where unions hold undisputed sway. The Owl Drug Co. boycott is discussed and photos of Walter Mac Arthur, Eugene E. Schmitz, and P.H. McCarthy are included. Also included is war correspondent Frank H. Schell's personal account of his experience at the Battle of Antietam, the bloodiest day in American history. Binding intact. Unmarked. Above-average external wear. Moderate moisture exposure. Dozens of glorious illustrated ads. A worthy vintage copy. Book

This 14-page chapter includes a one-page illustration of J.D. Rockefeller by George Varian, plus photos of William C. Scofield, Daniel Shurmer, John Teagle, George Rice, and Benjamin Butler. This chapter deals with organized espionage, the Scofield-Shurmer-Teagle Case, and related matters. With this work, Tarbell invented what we know today as investigative journalism. She was motivated to expose the methods of J.D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil as she felt he had unfairly damaged her father's oil business. The New York University Department of Journalism ranked this study as the fifth best work of 20th-century American journalism. Also contained in this issue is an intersting article entitled The Lone Fighter, by Ray Stannard Baker, which argues the U.S. is not a free country and Americans are not free, due to labor bosses, and government by and for 'The Bosses". Binding intact. Unmarked. Above-average but not excessive external wear. Moderate moisture exposure. Dozens of pages of glorious illustrated ads. A sound vintage copy. Book
br. La Cina ha acquisito negli ultimi decenni una centralità crescente sul piano economico prima, e su quello scientifico-tecnologico poi. Tradendo sistematicamente le aspettative degli osservatori, la Repubblica Popolare ha imposto forme proprie del rapporto fra società e tecnologia: prima supportando lo sviluppo di Internet nel Paese, acquisendo la popolazione connessa più grande del mondo; poi sviluppando un'efficace capacità innovativa in ambiti di frangia come le biotech e i big data. Ma è stato davvero un 'tradire le aspettative'? O piuttosto le premesse degli osservatori erano basate su premesse non condivise? Combinando analisi storico-culturologiche, storia della tecnologia e analisi sul campo, questo volume offre una prima esplorazione di alcune delle forme principali con cui la Cina appare aver elaborato storicamente il rapporto fra società e tecnologia. Nel farlo, il volume le mette a confronto coni loro equivalenti sviluppatisi all'interno della cultura di matrice cristiana. Emergono due immaginari tecnologici profondamente diversi, cui attingono tecno-mitologie incompatibili, sebbene egualmente potenti, e che tracciano orizzonti di policy significativamente divergenti. Dal rapporto con l'informatica sovietica alla storia dei molteplici tentativi di digitalizzazione della scrittura cinese, dalle parabole taoiste alle vicende degli hacker nazionalisti, fino ai paralleli fra Internet e l'oppio, il viaggio nell'immaginario tecnologico cinese offre un'inedita prospettiva su un fattore importantissimo nel definire i destini del mondo contemporaneo.
