Student-led in its design and development, the book incorporates digital marketing as central to what marketers do, and combines quality examples, assessment and online resources to support the teaching and learning of introductory marketing in a digital age.

The author integrates digital and social media marketing throughout the chapters and through student involvement in the development of it, the text has been made to be approachable and to appeal to students, with infographics, numerous images, and an engaging writing style. It facilitates the "flipped" approach to classroom teaching and is supported by a number of features and activities in every chapter, encouraging students to undertake course reading, class participation and revision. It includes case studies from global companies such as Airbnb, Amazon, Apple, Burberry, eBay, Etsy, Google, IKEA, Nespresso, Netflix, Nike and Uber. It also takes a social view of marketing, featuring cases tied to the UN's PRME initiative to aid students in becoming sustainably-minded individuals.

The book is complemented by online instructor resources, including chapter-specific PowerPoint slides, an instructor manual, flipped classroom activities, as well as open access multiple choice questions (with solutions), videos, case studies, web links, a glossary and American Marketing Association (AMA) journal articles for students.

I wish I had this text book when I started my university education many moons ago - it could have developed my critical thinking earlier in my academic journey. This text will be a must-have for all first year marketing students and a useful guide for staff and students. Overall, an excellent, first-rate text book for first year university students...this text should be adopted by first year students and kept for all levels of study as a core guide to the key concepts, theories and frameworks within marketing.

-- Christopher Pich
Overall, there aren't any chapters, which are not useful, as the theoretical foundations this text aims to impart are helpful in understanding the essential principles and elements to marketing. In particular, I like the emphasis of 'marketing within in the digital age', as it aligns with what students expect to see in a marketing text.
