The book delves into the 'grey zone' where illegal, unfair, unethical and 'shady' practices coalesce: from the retailers who see themselves as victims of customers who take unfair and often illegal advantage of generous offers, to the consumers sold 'useless' insurance and financial packages and 'defrauded' by 'small print' clauses.The authors outline the contours of the contemporary moral economy, driven and shaped by technological innovation as much as new economic policies, and ask, is a 'predatory society' emerging from the central sphere of consumption?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStephen Farrall\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cem\u003eRsearch professor in Criminology, University of Derby\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cstrong\u003eSusanne Karstedt\u003c\/strong\u003e, Professor in the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice, Griffith University, Australia \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStephen Farrall\u003c\/strong\u003e is a research professor in Criminology at the University of Derby.
