Joel Bakan is the author of the books 'The Corporation' and 'Childhood Under Siege'. The Corporation (the last book we read and reviewed) talks about how the structure of large companies essentially forces them to focus purely on profit and disregard any other obligations or responsibilities they may have to those around them. It was also a documentation (of the same title) and Joel is currently working on 'The Corporation 2' to be released in late-2018. Childhood Under Siege talks about how big businesses target children and control their actions through marketing and advertising, as children haven't fully developed more rational, long-term thinking and planning yet.   Enter our competition to win EVERY book we read and review in Season 2 by leaving us a review or by heading to www.whatyouwilllearn.com/contest Grab the notes we've made for every episode by heading to www.whatyouwilllearn.com/notes Help us improve the show (and enter our competition) by completing the short questionnaire at www.whatyouwilllearn.com/survey   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
