About the Book
Preocupados con actualizarnos constantemente, con obtener el último modelo de quién sabe qué, con lucir la insignia del consumidor moderno, informado, a la última.
Minados por ubicuos mensajes que insisten en recordarnos que siempre hay algo mejor, que lo que tenemos nunca es ni será suficiente, es y está destinado a ser antiguo, de la temporada pasada o lo que es lo mismo pero no igual, de hace siglos, que en consumo equivale a una era.
¿Y si decidimos no estarlo? ¿Y si decidiéramos no correr en pos del futuro hecho gadget, vehículo todoterreno o camisa a la moda?

Concerned with being constantly updated, with obtaining the latest model of who knows what, with wearing the badge of the modern, informed, up-to-date consumer.
Undermined by ubiquitous messages that insist in reminding us that there’s always something better, that what we have is nor will never be enough, is bound to be old, of the last season or, which is the same but not, of centuries ago, which in consumption is equal to an era.
What if we decide not to be? What if we decide not to run in pursuit of a future made into a gadget, a SUV or a trendy shirt?
