Comments on the first edition: 'This innovative and student-friendly textbook combines theory with practical examples and illustrations to bring the study of consumer behaviour to life. I particularly like the 'think boxes' which encourage students to ponder issues as they read each chapter. The inclusion of key articles also provides students with a convenient means of delving deeper into issues to gain richer insights into consumer behaviour.' - Professor David Jobber "A particularly well-conceived text that superbly demystified consumer behaviour. The underpinning theory is easy to grasp and its application is so clearly shown. The book's student-centric focus is excellent.' - Professor Leslie de ChernatonyEvans, Martin is the author of 'Consumer Behaviour', published 2009 under ISBN 9780470994658 and ISBN 0470994657.
