Not Buying it är den fristående uppföljaren till Christina Knights tidigare bok "Mad Women - A Herstory of Advertising" och också en mer praktisk guide till alla kvinnor som vill kunna navigera ännu bättre i den mansdominerade kommunikationsbranschen. Läsaren får ta del av författarens personliga erfarenheter, såväl som relevant forskning, råd och tips för att bäst bemöta och hantera allt från härskartekniker och sexuella trakasserier till att löneförhandla framgångsrikt, ta och ge plats och att komma tillbaka efter en föräldraledighet på ett rimligt sätt, bland mycket annat. Boken är skriven på engelska.
"I believe we are done with the diagnosis; defining and stating the problem of the advertising industry, we know it more than well and we are not buying it. It s time for tangible tools and strategies so that we can solve the problem and not just talk about it. And that is precisely the raison d être of this book to offer specific aid on anything from negotiating for equal pay and tackling power play and inequality in your everyday life to recruiting and promoting diverse talent. My absolute belief is that it is possible and necessary to create a more equal, diverse and relevant advertising industry, beneficial to all. It s high time. Let s make it happen." Christina Knight

"This book is a well-needed, empowering and inspirational accountof women s experiences of the ad industry.
