We consume too much, so get this book and read about it.

Interesting sociological analysis about the roots and manifestations of status anxiety. Should be dry considering the subject matter but de Botton writes in a colloquial, humorous fashion. Easy to read as the work is divided up into numbered sections with their own headings.

Fascinating. A little too close to home!
