What does it say about modern culture when people tip their rubbish anywhere they like and treat any street as their dining room? This thought-provoking book shows that the most telling truths about ourselves and our society are expressed in the debris that surrounds us and the rubbish flapping in the wind like Buddhist prayer flags. From the bottom up, this little book provides a thought-provoking X-ray of contemporary society's values and its failures and how we can strive to change it.
