4.0 out of 5 stars A good read
This is an important book. Its thesis, that daily life has been colonised by financial circuits of capital, is an important one to explore. The book is accessible to a wider readership.

3.0 out of 5 stars Obfuscation of daily life, July 2, 2009
This review is from: Financialization of Daily Life (Labor in Crisis) (Paperback)
The book basically explains how economic-political ("ecopolinomic") attempts by the big financial businesses (global banks and other financial institutions) to get more people to part with their money (borrowed from or stored with banks).

I give it 3 out of 5 stars for the following reasons:
Although enlightening, the author fills too many pages trying to sound smart with sound bytes. His style and vocabulary is also not suited to the general reader, for one needs a dictionary on hand for unusual words on about every 2nd page. Pity, because the topic needs not appear sophisticated to be informative or to appear profound.
