One can hope with such an expansive title, the authors and editors would come close to delivering a coherent final result. The minds behind the book fail to display an authoritative command of the subject and even crash then burn when addressing the well established theoretical framework for product and service branding.
Words and phrases meander on their way to make a point and assertions get lost in endless repetition as a reader might stumble over badly organized chapters, paragraphs and even sentences.
The doctoral students at the heart of this work should leave marketplace offerings and return to their academic environs more accepting of sophmoric admirations of their elders and more studied peers.
I will use the book as an exceptional listing of contemporary studies on more narrow subjects.
