"It is simply too much" is a common complaint of the modern age.
This book looks at how people and institutions deal with overflow -
of information, consumption or choices. The essays explore the ways
in which notions of overflow - framed in terms of excess and
abundance or their implicit opposites, scarcity and dearth - crop
up in a number of contexts such as sociological and economic
theory, management consulting, consumer studies, and the politics
of everyday life. Chapters range from studies of overload at home,
at work or in the world of cyber information; strategies of coping
with overflow in institutions such as news agencies; and historical
comparisons. When, where, how and for whom is overflow a problem or
a blessing?
