Michael de Certeau: Practice of Everyday Life Book Review

Main Concept-
1. To fight the system one must be in the system.
2. The everyday main is you, me and 90% of the world. The other 10% are the artist and elite who are outside the "system".
3. TV, Media and Consumerism set new laws of living for the Everday Man.
4. The “system” is a set of do’s and don’t set up by the powerful to control the “Everyday” man to keep them in line.
5. The “Everyday” man can stick it to the powerful in subtle or out loud ways.
