Carried Away: The Invention of Modern Shopping by Rachel Bowlby, ISBN 0231122756
The curious history of shopping and our ideas about it, from the glamorous nineteenth-century department store to our own multi-functional supermarkets
Carried away or loaded down, love it or hate it, we take shopping for granted as one of the pleasures, or burdens, of our lives. Yet we are curiously unaware of how we became the consumers that we are.
In this witty and revelatory book, Rachel Bowlby looks at some of the turning points of twentieth-century consumer history: when department stores gave way to supermarkets; when packaging made everyday things into objects of desire; when self-service created a close, new relationship between shoppers and merchandise.

Here, John Ayto has brought together over 10,000 slang words and phrases common to 20th-century English, to provide a comprehensive and highly engaging guide to the most outspoken corner of our language.
