We´re all stuffocated. We have more stuff than we could ever need - but it´s bad for the planet and it´s making us stressed. It might even be killing us.

In this groundbreaking book, trend forecaster James Wallman finds that a rising number of people are turning away from all-you-can-get consumption, from the exec who´s sold almost everything he owns, to the well-off family who moved to a remote mountain cabin.

In Stuffocation, Wallman´s solution is to focus less on possessions and more on experiences. It is a manifesto for a vital change in how you live - and it´s the one book you won´t be able to live without.
Experientialism, as Wallman calls it, will define our future just as materialism has shaped our present Observer
