Who doesn't love shopping? Of course, most of us. Evolution of internet and digitalization in all walks of life have created a paradigm shift in shopping patterns from bricks and mortar to online shopping. Though consumers have started welcoming and adopting this new phenomenon but still the move is not in its full swing. Consumers are somewhat reluctant to use it as they are facing various kinds of obstacles. Since consumers are central point of any business to achieve success, it is imperative to analyze and understand consumers behavior and attitudes to make them satisfied. The book makes an attempt to assess the web-based shopping behavior of consumers in India. Specifically it presents a clear picture of concerns and issues that exist in the adoption of online shopping. The main objective of this study is to explore major factors which consumers consider while making online purchases and to expose the factors which create hindrance to online shopping. The present work is a modified version of author's research work for which she has been awarded a Doctorate degree by Department of Business Administration, University of Kota.

Katja Wagner investigates consumer behavioral intention and interactions with new technologies and digital channels. Due to the fact that the development, spread and sale of these new technologies and digital channels will have a continuous growth and influence in the following years regarding business activities, it is important to take a deeper look in the areas of artificial intelligence and e-commerce. Not only business is affected from these new shifts, but it also impacts consumers’ attitudes, motivation, and practices. So, the evaluation of anthropomorphism and in general, the expectation and motivation of successful acceptance are under review and offer explanations for consumers intentional usage of new technologies. Therefore, six essays address specific phenomena in central subareas of new technologies and digital channels for a more profound understanding of consumers in digital environments.
