This 1998 book is a history and cultural analysis of the supermarket in twentieth-century Australia. It traces the ascendency of the supermarket over the counter service grocery store, drawing on oral history among other sources. It is also a critical discussion of consumer society and of the work of cultural analysts on consumption.
