Industry Reviews

'The contributions provide full - and often stimulating discussions of the ways in which the individual subjects have developed their approaches towards consumption.' - Business History

'Excellent up-to-date coverage of this rapidly developing field [with] cutting-edge authors.' - Dr. Simon Locke, Kingston University

'Excellent review of cross-disciplinary thought on consumption.' - Dr. D. W. Marshall, Edinburgh University
