About the Book

Overwhelmed by the amount of 'stuff' you own? James Wallman is here to show you that you're not alone and there's a way to change that!

'Like The Tipping Point meets Freakonomics - but with a huge idea at its heart' Sunday Times

We have more stuff than we could ever need - clothes we don't wear, kit we don't use, and toys we don't play with. It's bad for the planet, it's making us stressed, and it might even be killing us.

In other words, we're stuffocated.

From the exec who's sold almost everything he owns, to the well-off family who moved to a remote mountain cabin, a rising number of people are turning away from all-you-can-get consumption. Perfect for fans of Marie Kondo, Stuffocation is a manifesto for a vital change in how we all live, focusing less on possessions and more on experiences, and the one book you won't be able to live without.

'This book will definitely change your life and could even change the world' Chris Evans

'Particularly timely . . . [Wallman] is spot on' The Daily Mail

'Experientialism, as Wallman calls it, will define our future just as materialism has shaped our present'
The Observer

Review :
Amazing, brilliant, incredible ... It's going to change my life. Buy this book and give 10 others away It will definitely change your life and could change the world Fascinating, inspiring, and great fun to read Persuasive... clever With a sociologist's eye and a storyteller's ear, James Wallman takes us on a tour... he identifies the rise of a new value system among those who are consciously replacing materialism with what he rightly calls experientialism. Spot on James Wallman has engagingly woven a mix of true-life stories to demonstrate why our materialistic society no longer makes us happy and what we can do about it. This is written with warmth and wit. The surprise is that Wallman's glimpses of the future also illuminate, with rare insight, the difficult process of culture change Mixes personal and social commentary with a sympathetic understanding of where excessive consumerism comes from, and also has really good recommendations on what to do about it. An original, provocative mixture An exhilarating ghost train ride through the madness of over-consumption, during which we are taunted by our own greed. Fortunately, there is light at the end of the tunnel - and James Wallman takes us there Stuffocation will take you on the journey of your life. As Wallman builds his case, the true value of experience emerges and resonates .... I'll venture that no one goes unchanged by this book What Malcom Gladwell did for psychology in Blink, James Wallman does for the fascinating world of trend forecasting in Stuffocation. Backed with quirky stories and compelling examples that are a joy to read, Wallman lifts the veil on why we live the way we do today... and why our obsession with 'stuff' may be about to change. You'll never look at a visit to the shops in the same way again. A gem
