Dear fellow tPFers,

I am currently a fourth-year student studying for my undergrad degree, with my passion for luxury products (bags, cars, you name it), I decided to write my thesis by using brand name as my core focus. However, I'm still in the brainstorming phase and have not decide which exact and specific direction to write about (maybe the chain reactions and the mass becoming materialistic..perhaps consumer behavior?) and need to do a massive amount of research. I have found a few books that might be useful for my research..such as the well-known:

Deluxe: How Luxury Lost Its Luster
by Dana Thomas
http://www.amazon.co.jp/Deluxe-How-...ie=UTF8&s=english-books&qid=1190894147&sr=8-1

and

Luxury Fever: Money and Happiness in an Era of Excess
by Robert H. Frank
http://www.amazon.co.jp/Luxury-Feve...e=UTF8&s=english-books&qid=1190895030&sr=8-15

I'm studying in a university in Japan, that's why I have to use Amazon Japan :Push:

Suggestions (about my thesis, books, articles, anything!) greatly appreciated!!!

TIA :tup:
