5.0 out of 5 stars Very interesting textbook, one of the best I've seen!, February 7, 2007
By A. Schneider (Connecticut) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Consumer Behavior (Hardcover)
As a marketing major, this consumer behavior textbook has been an asset to my learning so far. Very descriptive with many graphic examples. Uses outside knowledge from today that help the reader to stay alert and interested.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Textbook, February 9, 2009
Hate to say it, but this textbook is not as boring as other textbooks you may find out there. The book incorporates companies around the world in order to provide the reader with great examples. The only issue I see is the author now has an excuse to constantly come up with new editions just by coming up with new examples.
