In "iSHOP You Shop: Raising Questions About Reading Commodities," Patrick Shannon delves into the intricate relationship between education, consumerism, and literacy. The book critically analyzes how the commodification of educational materials influences reading practices and the experiences of students. Shannon challenges conventional views, examining how market forces shape what we read and how we engage with texts. Through thought-provoking questions and insightful commentary, he encourages readers to reflect on the implications of viewing books and educational resources as commodities, ultimately advocating for a deeper understanding of literacy within a consumer-driven society.
