Books by P. Kitchen

This book is intended for practitioners and academics who wish to develop an understanding of marketing in an international context. Rather the text gives comments, views, positive statements, criticisms and doubts from leading authors, concerning marketing and its role within business and as an academic subject in the 21st century.

Metaphors are widely used within marketing literature, yet so far have remained unacknowledged. This book aims to redress that omission. Such widely known topics such as globalization of markets, viral marketing and many others are in fact metaphors; moreover, marketing itself may be a metaphor, underlying many exchanges and relationships.

Corporate Globalization has created a growing worldwide demand for guidance on how to apply the principles of integrated marketing communications across borders.
