From a GoodRead's review:
"This is a well written book that will help you understand how and why your skin care purchases matter. Moreover, you will learn how to protect your skin. Readers of any age will find information of value to their health. During a recent visit to a Plastic Surgeon's office to ask a few questions...you guessed it, this book was on the physician's shelf."
The Future of Luxury
We are at the beginning of a revolution in luxury branding. It is most remarkable because it is drawing into its vortex hard science and social science. It is a convergence of neurobiology, psychology, behavioral economics and evolutionary biology. Its tools are neuromarketing, brain scanners, pathology, mathematics, facial recognition, eye trackers, and personal questionnaires. It is rigorous, based on the scientific method, and is explaining the greatest secrets of our humanity.
This convergence will sweep aside empirical lessons from business and marketing classrooms of the past 50 years. We will come to grips
with the fact that all decisions are "emotional", and that in many important ways people do not think “rationally”. We will learn that our modern decision-making was hammered into place by evolutionary biology tens of thousands of years ago, before reading or writing. We will learn where in the brain our thoughts are born, percolate, and become action. This knowledge will make communicating among us faster, cheaper and more accurate.
But this new convergence is threatening to some. Many of our biggest consumer products companies, and their business and marketing leaders, are poorly trained in the hard sciences. Some actively avoid it.
New companies, with new people, who are competent in this converging science, will supplant them. We saw this in the last few decades when personal computing overturned all the news media, entertainment and music industries.
Are you ready?
What you will find here: Discussion of the convergence of these sciences on luxury branding and neuromarketing. Ideas formed into essays, scientific papers, commentary and reviews of the work of others. It will all have the purpose of understanding ourselves better, and aligning our work with concepts supported by facts.
