Leon Schiffman$173.33(USD)
With a strong empirical and market segmentation approach, this book focuses on how the Internet has changed the way people obtain information about potential purchases, giving readers the most up-to-date material on how technology is changing their lives as consumers. The Thirty-two mini-cases help readers learn by applying the theory, drawing on current business news to demonstrate specific consumer behavior concepts.
This edition now includes thirty-two Active Learning mini-cases. A clear consumer decision making model is set out in each chapter to facilitate learning–presented in the first chapter, this model serves as a structural framework for the concepts–the building blocks–examined in the following chapters. The book's final chapter ties all of these concepts together so readers see the interrelationships and relevance of individual concepts to consumer decision-making.
For those studying consumer behavior and/or marketing.

Updated to reflect the most recent research and examples, the Fourth Edition features streamlined content and organization--from 21 to 20 chapters--as well as a new interior design and new photos and advertisements. In addition, several pedagogical features make the material accessible and meaningful to marketing students: chapter-opening cases show the anecdotal application of concepts, while end-of-chapter questions and exercises require students to investigate consumer behavior issues and analyze advertisements and marketing strategies. A range of technology resources supports instructors and students throughout the term.
