Format:Paperback
Even Einstein said "if you can't explain it simply, then you don't understand it". This book is the simplest explaination of what really matters in marketing and while you can read the most complex detailed marketing texts in the world, if you read this book in 30minutes you know most of what you need to know. If you are in marketing, this book is invaluable - if you ever need to present to a non-marketing audience, your presentation is already written for you, or better still give copies of it to your team or your colleagues. If you are not in marketing, read this book for invaluable and straight to the point insight.

Needs to be updated 24 Nov 2004
Format:Paperback
I found this book very interesting and really easy to read, but the examples need updating. Things have changed a bit in the last 11 years (this book was written in 1993) and reading things like "Microsoft is the leader in personal computer operating systems, but it trails the leaders in each of the following major categories: spreadsheets (Lotus), word processing (WordPerfect) and business graphics (Harvard graphics)" can't fail to put a smile on your face. I think that the laws still hold true though. One more thing: the book has been written by Americans for Americans and certain brands mentioned in it are not well known in Europe, if at all. It's still worth reading, in my opinion.

Format:Paperback
And I have read a lot!

If you only ever read one marketing book, make it this one. This book is excellent in the way it details the foundations of marketing in one easy to read and fun experience.

My only criticism is that the authors might have put the case forward for when "line extension", an obvious pet hate of the authors, can and does work.

I have a copy of this book at home and at work and always think of the 22 laws when looking at new products or business ideas.

excellent
A timeless classic: the Laws still apply as powerfully as when the book was first written. Highly complementary is their Law of Branding book, which is equally indispensable. Read more
