Transhumanisms and Biotechnologies in Consumer Society offers new, critical perspectives on the impact of 'life-enhancing' technological advancements on consumer identity positions and market evolutions. Technoprogressive innovations that include body modification technologies and reproductive technologies have enabled people to transcend bodily constraints. In parallel, they provoke necessary, critical interrogation around human capabilities, technological possibilities, gender equality, feminism, personal identity, bioethics, markets and morality. The contributions in this book re-evaluate these topics and elucidate some of the vexed relationships between consumers of biotechnologies and markets they consider restrictive or misleading. Secondly, by illustrating consumers' questioning of and resistance to biomedical, market imperatives, they highlight how the notion of consumer sovereignty, consumer influence over markets, has now advanced into novel forms of consumer activism made manifest through contemporary health justice movements. The chapters in this book also uncover profoundly personal consumer accounts on coping with and managing bodies-in-transition, focusing on illness, self-perception, survivorship and the vicissitudes of these corporeal experiences. This book will allow readers to understand how accelerated technological market changes are being experienced and creatively countered at the societal and individual level. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Journal of Marketing Management.

The mobile, device-led integration of online and offline worlds has introduced many uncertainties and opportunities. These have driven businesses, researchers, and policymakers to learn more about this rapidly changing domain.

In M-Powering Marketing in a Mobile World, we present a concise guide for executives in general, digital marketers, and for interested researchers and policymakers. We identify key emerging trends, develop frameworks based on critical variables, and draw lessons for marketers. The book illustrates the processes by which mobile devices have trans- formed economies worldwide, the evolving face of Internet usage, strategies adopted by corporations, their applications in retail, emerging data and metric generation processes, as well as policy issues. It explains how mobile devices have become the market's steppingstone toward an IoT-infused environment, a gateway for artificial intelligence-driven marketing processes and the entry portal for a potentially hyperautomated future of consumption.
