It's hard to find books that actually show you how to integrate trends and trend forecasting into your business - but this one does just that. It steers you though the process; offers hints and tips; gives examples of current and growing trends and includes insightful advice from senior execs in the field. A practical, must-have guide for anyone serious about business.

A really useful book for any business person wondering how to use trends within their business. It shows you how to spot, analyse and use trends, and focuses on real life situations and practical applications. Now if only I had the time to put it all into practice! In times of recession every business needs to know as much as they possibly can about what's happening out there and try to adapt accordingly.

Whilst there is a wealth of trend books for marketers, there was a real lack of help on the practicalities of trend-spotting, until now. Higham covers everything from the definition of a trend (often misinterpreted by many an advertiser or agency executive), to how to identify them and most importantly, how to apply them. The book is peppered with tons of examples from big brands, quotes and pointers from top brands and their agencies. What I like about this essential guide is that it is well organised and easy to read, which would give it appeal to students and senior marketing executives alike.
