SUMMARY:Michael Blanding, “The Coke Machine: The Dirty Truth Behind 
 the World’s Favorite Soft Drink.”
DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate the publication of J.P. journalist Michael 
 Blanding’s new book, “The Coke Machine: The Dirty Truth Behind the
  World’s Favorite Soft Drink.” The Coke Machine takes readers deep
  inside the Coca-Cola Company and its international franchises to reve
 al how they became the number one brand in the world, and just how far
  they’ll go to stay there. Visit www.thecokemachine.com or www.faceb
 ook.com/thecokemachine to learn more!\nReviews\n\n“Every company has
  a dark side, and you won’t believe how dark Coca-Cola’s is. After
  reading this book, good luck having a Coke and smile.”–Morgan Spu
 rlock, director of Supersize Me\n\n“In The Coke Machine, Michael Bla
 ndingtakes a tough, unsweetened look at the business practices of this
  iconic American company. His investigations reveal the costs—in eth
 ics, health, public resources, and sometimes even human life—of Coca
 -Cola’s relentless pressure to expand sales of its products. This bo
 ok is a terrific introduction to the inner workings of corporate capit
 alism as it plays out on a global scale”—Marion Nestle, author of 
 Food Politics and What to Eat\n\n“Coca-Cola wants to teach the world
  to sing, but in the process they’ve trashed water supplies, peddled
  sugar to generations of kids, and undermined workers’ rights around
  the world. Put down your soda, read The Coke Machine, and join the gl
 obal movement to rein in unaccountable corporations.”—Barbara Ehre
 nreich, author of Bright-Sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positi
 ve Thinking Has Undermined America\n\nAbout the Author:\nMichael Bland
 ing is an award-winning magazine writer whose investigative journalism
  has taken him around the world. Based in Boston, he has written for T
 he Nation, The New Republic, salon.com, The Boston Globe, Condé Nast 
 Traveler, and Boston magazine, where he is a contributing editor\n\nFo
