How you feel about this text will depend on your level of interest in this topic. If you have a high level of interest, you'll like the book; otherwise, you will be bored with the level of detail. I thought the case studies and profiles alone were worth the price of the book. The case studies describe the considerations/limitations the marketing team faced and describes the program conceived, presented from the perspectives of both client and agency. This is one of the rare textbooks I have kept after the class was completed.
