TOP SLOP: JOEL BAKAN

Joel Bakan should really need no introduction: he is the author of The Corporation: the Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power, a bestseller in numerous countries and winner of countless awards, and  the writer and co-creator of the accompanying documentary (also an award winner: The Corporation won best documentary at the Sundance Film Festival).  He is also a jazz musician and a professor of law at the University of British Columbia, but still somehow found time to write his most recent book, Childhood Under Siege: How Big Business Targets Children. 

Joel Bakan is a featured author at The Word on the Street festival (September 28 to 30), and we are more than honoured to present his Top Slop, which you can read HERE.
