"This was more a book about how we shop, rather than why we shop. It was a fascinating look into how stores and merchandise is configured. Some things seem so obvious, but are simply not followed. Book also covers a bit of internet shopping, but is mostly the "science" of how to get people to buy more of certain products or buy more in a certain store."
"This book provides me knowledge about retail shopping behavior, an anthropological study on retail setting through thorough observations. It contains more sets of description rather than sets of argumentation. I appreciate on the writer's attention to what seems to be petty details (but in fact this details are essentially shaping consumers' behaviors on retail settings)."
"This book was really fascinating - both as a small business owner, learning how, when, and why people buy the way they do, but also just as an interested consumer. He has lots of interesting stories that just fascinated me. It is written a bit simplistically (he defines the same thing repeatedly in case you couldn't remember from the previous chapters) and he uses a few examples over and over again which gets a little repetitive. A few of the later chapters got a bit long-winded but overall a very interesting book."
"This book explains in social science terms why people buy stuff. For example, a man or woman shopping with his/her child will spend less time in a store than a woman shopping alone. The woman shopping alone will spend time in a store than two women shopping together. The last 50-75 pages were added to the "updated" version of the book. They are nothing more than any Introduction to International Business book will give you. These pages can probably be skipped."
