Title: shameless self promotion and no new news
Product review: this book is packed with (annoyingly repetitive) case studies that have appeared in business books for the last ten years. if you are in marketing and don't know what this book has to tell you, you shouldn't be in marketing. i saw this as a way for the Boston Consulting Group to sell themselves and their brilliant thinking (notice how chock full the book is of made-up marketing words like "questing"). the main redeeming feature of the book are its facts and figures about American spending and economics, however NONE of the facts are sourced, cited or otherwise grounded in reality. very annoying.
