An engaging, accessible history of the focus group, looking at its origins in early European socialism, its subsequent use by Madison Avenue, and its employment today in consumer marketing and politics. Brimful of compelling anecdotes, and colorful first-hand reporting, Featherstone's survey shows how the primary purpose of the focus group has shifted from determining what we want, to selling us things we don't.
