Now Dale Air, a leading firm of aroma (香氣) consultants, has been approached by Barclay39。s security and professionalism. But before a smell can be manufactured and introduced into banks39。s (魚(yú)販) will smell of fish, and banknotes used to pay for meals in restaurants will tend to smell of food. It may be a challenge, but aroma experts have little doubt that the use of artificial smells can be an effective form of subconscious advertising.

And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, created by panies and advertisers wanting to sell their wares. The main impact of endless choice in people39。 no choice, no anxiety. The plethora (過(guò)剩)of choice is not limited to consumer items. With the greater mobility of people around the world, people have more choice about where they want to live and work a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, nations migrated across huge swathes of the earth in search of food, adventure, and more hospitable environments. Whole nations crossed continents and changed the face of history. So the mobility of people is nothing new. The creation of nation states and borders effectively slowed this process down. 36.
