Excellent textbook, though a bit too abstract at times for MBA-level students.

Excellent text

The approach taken by the book is not exactly useful for an introductory course, but the text is very informative and might be extremely helpful at a graduate/MBA level.

A very insightful text that provides an excellent critical framework for evaluating marketing practice. High level for undergraduate, though for more advanced students, it is certainly a text that will 'make them think'.

I'm recommending this as supplemental reading for the new second year in marketing course to begin October 2014

This whole text helps students recognise marketing conventions and think more critically about marketing theory and practice - very important since many of them will go onto become practitioners themselves.

An excellent and accessible overview of the key topics in marketing management and market research, from a critical perspective. Clear, well-written and engaging.

A different approach and well received by students as recommended reading.
Stimulated lots of useful tutorial discussions. Will keep on reading list
