Publisher's Synopsis
Since the advent of e-commerce, consumerism has evolved exponentially. In 2013, online retailing in Europe grew to 111.2 billion with online retail sales via mobile devices expected to grow to 7.62 billion. The high street, however, is suffering, with 27% of stores in the UK sitting vacant in January 2014. This book explores the development of e-commerce and the future of shopping. It also examines your rights as a consumer and considers the role of ethical consumerism in today's society.
