"The control the industry has on us is a myth" - Matt Hrushka This is an amazing book, dotted with a bit of history and the evolution of advertising. The concept of advertising as warfare dates back to McLuhan's point of view of how the ad industry conducts itself. The Ad war is top notch and a must for any entrepreneur in the internet space.
