Of Cigarettes, High Heels, and Other Interesting Things: An Introduction to Semiotics 2nd ed. 2008 edition
Marcel Danesi
Why do people routinely risk their health by smoking cigarettes? Why do some females make walking a struggle by donning high heels? In a fully updated edition, the author attempts to answer such questions by explaining the discipline that endeavors to understand the human meaning quest: semiotics.
