Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired discussion, dissent, war, and revolution. They have enlightened, enraged, provoked, and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of great thinkers, pioneers, radicals, and visionaries, whose ideas shook culture and helped us become who we are. With the ironic portrayal of a shallow, materialistic 'leisure class' obsessed with clothes, cars, consumer goods, and climbing the social hierarchy, this searing satire of modern capitalism is as relevant today as it was when written over a century ago.
