  In The Road Teaches You, celebrated travel writer Reece Davis reflects on decades spent wandering across six continents — from dusty border crossings and rain-soaked bus rides to fleeting moments of human kindness that leave an indelible mark. 
  Through encounters with nomads, poets, fishermen, and strangers who became friends, Davis reveals how travel’s greatest lessons aren’t found in guidebooks or landmarks, but in the quiet wisdom of those met along the way.

  The Shocking Truth about...

  Consumerism, as we know it today, is the result of centuries of societal, economic, and psychological evolution. Its roots can be traced back to the Industrial Revolution of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, a period that marked a profound transformation in the way goods were produced and consumed. Before this era, most economies were primarily agrarian, and consumption was limited to meeting basic needs. However, the advent of mechanized production brought about mass manufacturing, reducing costs and making goods more widely accessible. This shift laid the groundwork for the rise of consumer culture. 
  The Industrial Revolution not only increased the availability of products but also introduced the idea of consumer choice. As markets grew, competition among producers intensified, leading to innovations in marketing and branding. Businesses began to recognize the importance of distinguishing their products through unique features or emotional appeal, planting the seeds of modern advertising. By the late 19th century, print advertisements were appearing in newspapers and magazines, offering visions of a better, more glamorous life through the purchase of specific goods. 
  At its core, consumerism thrives on the tension between desire and need. Unlike basic survival needs, desires are shaped by cultural, social, and psychological factors. Early advertisers tapped into this distinction, framing products as solutions to problems or as pathways to happiness and status. This psychological shift was crucial in transforming consumption from a practical activity into an aspirational pursuit.
