Devised to offer comprehensive coverage for a short course in marketing, Foundations of Marketing retains its concise twelve chapter structure. The book offers a rigorous but accessible introduction, covering the core marketing curriculum in an engaging style that routinely demonstrates how marketing affects our everyday lives, considering both the decisions we make as consumers, and decisions marketing professionals would make in response to their customers.

The new edition also takes a more critical approach that questions and engages with current debates. Topic highlights of the fourth edition include widespread coverage of the huge impact of social media on the sphere of marketing, a fresh look at new techniques of marketing research used in real organizations, and a contemporary perspective on the growing service segment of the world economy.
