"Childhood Under Siege: How Big Business Targets Children" by Joel Bakan

In "Childhood Under Siege: How Big Business Targets Children" (2011), Joel Bakan reveals the astonishingly callous and widespread exploitation of children by profit-seeking corporations-and also society's shameful failure to protect them. The creator of the award-winning film and internationally best-selling book The Corporation, Bakan shows how corporations pump billions of dollars into rendering parents and governments powerless to shield children from a relentless commercial assault designed solely to exploit their unique needs and vulnerabilities.http://www.joelbakan.com
