"What do women want?" While Sigmund Freud may have most famously asked this question, it is a safe bet that he wasn't the first (or last) to puzzle over it. Even in our current complex and self-aware age, women's lives are all too often viewed in the light of familiar generalizations and obsolete notions from terms long past. Surely the truth of a woman's life can best be found in its details. What keeps her up at night? What makes her laugh out loud? What frustrates her? Intrigues her? Inspires her? Fulfills her? To uncover these details and find out what makes woman tick, She Means Business draws in groundbreaking, never before published research conducted by the Time Inc. Women's Group of magazines. The thirteen diverse publications that make up the group, including best-selling titles like People, Parenting, Cooking Light, Essence, In Style, Teen People, Health, BabyTalk, Real Simple, People en Espanol, All You, Cottage Living, and Suede, reach over 45 million women a year. To ensure that its magazines remain the most up-to-date and trusted brands in the business, Time Inc. annually sponsors numerous surveys, focus groups, and large-scale studies across the country, involving more than 30,000 woman - those who read the company's magazines and those who don't. Filled with fascinating insights across a wide spectrum of topics, from health to style to careers to motherhood to personal relationships, She Means Business provides an unparalleled opportunity to better understand the most diverse, dynamic and economically powerful force in today's consumer marketplace.

#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • “A landmark manifesto" (The New York Times) that's a revelatory, inspiring call to action and a blueprint for individual growth that will empower women around the world to achieve their full potential.

The challenges to humanity posed by the digital future, the first detailed examination of the unprecedented form of power called "surveillance capitalism," and the quest by powerful corporations to predict and control our behavior. In this masterwork of original thinking and research, Shoshana Zuboff provides startling insights into the phenomenon that she has named surveillance capitalism. The stakes could not be higher: a global architecture of behavior modification threatens human nature in the twenty-first century just as industrial capitalism disfigured the natural world in the twentieth. Zuboff vividly brings to life the consequences as surveillance capitalism advances from Silicon Valley into every economic sector. Vast wealth and power are accumulated in ominous new "behavioral futures markets," where predictions about our behavior are bought and sold, and the production of goods and services is subordinated to a new "means of behavioral modification." The threat has shifted from a totalitarian Big Brother state to a ubiquitous digital architecture: a "Big Other" operating in the interests of surveillance capital. Here is the crucible of an unprecedented form of power marked by extreme concentrations of knowledge and free from democratic oversight. Zuboff's comprehensive and moving analysis lays bare the threats to twenty-first century society: a controlled "hive" of total connection that seduces with promises of total certainty for maximum profit -- at the expense of democracy, freedom, and our human future. With little resistance from law or society, surveillance capitalism is on the verge of dominating the social order and shaping the digital future -- if we let it.
