Trade Review‘Professor Dholakia’s book shows clearly how “digital marketing” is not just “using digital technology to do the usual marketing things”. The book is wide-ranging, eye-opening, insightful, creative, and provocative, drawing on Professor Dholakia’s own extensive research in these areas and from the most recent (and older) literature. It will not be the last word on these very important changes, but it should be read by anyone who wants to understand the significance of the changes that marketing is currently experiencing. Strongly Recommended!’ -- Rajeev Batra, University of Michigan, US
‘Although there are many books and online resources on digital marketing, we still lack a good summary of the hard-won insights and perspectives that are based on academic research. Professor Dholakia draws upon his rich experiences as a teacher and researcher to offer us a fresh, authentic, and pragmatic overview of this topic.’ -- Arvind Rangaswamy, Pennsylvania State University, US
