''No Logo: Taking Aim at the Brand Bullies'', a book written by Canadian journalist Naomi Klein , first appeared in January 2000 . FOCUS The book focuses on Branding , and often makes connections with the Anti-globalization Movement . Throughout the four parts (''No Space'', ''No Choice'', ''No Jobs'', and ''No Logo''), Klein writes about Sweatshop s in The Americas and Asia , Culture Jamming , Corporate Censorship , Reclaim The Streets , and much more. She pays special attention to the deeds (and alleged misdeeds) of Nike , GAP , McDonalds , Shell , and Microsoft and their lawyers, contractors, and Advertising Agencies .
