The Waste Makers by Vance Packard



  • Decades ago Vance Packard sounded the alarm about American society becoming wasteful.  This was well before the era of disposable... nearly everything.
  • While this book and the examples it uses are dated, the concept is the same.
  • Overall, Packard explores how an economy focused on manufacturing produces waste by design in order to stimulate demand.
