A review by mosso
The McDonaldization of Society by George Ritzer

3.0

This book draws attention to very important aspects of the way in which our society is becoming globalized, streamlined, and homogenized. It points out many of the irrationality of rationality and the inefficiencies of efficiency. However, after you've read the first 3 or 4 chapters, the book becomes rather repetitive, offering more examples without necessarily an expansion on concepts. This book remains incredibly relevant and I would recommend to anyone concerned about the globalized economy or sociological issues.
