The old way of selling was to create safe, ordinary products and combine them with mass marketing. The new way is to create truly innovative products and build the marketing right in. But how does a brand make the transition from old to new? According to advertising gurus Alex Bogusky and John Winsor, it starts with the realization that the message is not the product, the product is the message. In Baked-In, they offer a step-by-step guide on how brands can adapt and thrive in this brave new world. Using these tools, Bogusky and Winsor have successfully marketed some of today’s most important brands, including Google, Nike, Microsoft, Patagonia, Toyota, and Burger King. They reveal how, through tools at hand — product design, brand history, internal collaboration — and the new tools of digital technology — YouTube and the web in general — companies can succeed in the 21st-century marketplace.

Just prior to World War II, an appalling event will occur in a Philadelphia prison that will augur the murderous mayhem that is about to befall the civilized world. Thrown into a criminal maelstrom - the discovery of eight bizarrely discolored inmate corpses - is an unschooled county coroner who owes his job to an unscrupulous mayor and a political machine that ensured his election. For Heshel Glass the choice is clear: confirm a fictitious police account of the inmate deaths or follow the dictates of his conscience and initiate an unprecedented "blue-ribbon inquest" to explore the probability that recalcitrant prisoners were cooked alive by sadistic prison guards and heartless administrators.
