( 0 customer reviews ) | Packaging Girlhood : Rescuing Our Daughters from Marketers Schemes | | By: Lamb, Sharon; Brown, Lyn Mikel | | Published By Holtzbrinck | | Format: Paperback | | Pages: xii, 322 p. ; | Description
Lamb and Brown have created high-profile careers studying and writing about adolescent girls, but in this candid overview of how culture influences girls, they say that they are writing "not as academics but as women, moms, and teachers living in a world of . . . preteen lingerie." In the following chapters, Lamb and Brown argue that American marketing patterns channel girls desires into too-predictable and identity-damaging types, drawing examples from the clothing, TV and movies, popular music, books, and trendy activities marketed to teens. | |
