Publisher's Synopsis
Completely revised, this introduction to advertising as both an art and science provides a broad overview of advertising issues and functions. It places the advertising function within a contemporary, integrated marketing framework - showing how the advertising function must be co-ordinated with all other aspects of communications within the matrix of the total business function. Students explore not only the history, purpose, and the role of advertising in our multi-faceted economy, but learn the specific techniques for planning media use, following the creative process, and planning campaigns. There is also an instructor's manual with a video guide available (ISBN: 0-13-206814-1).
