Rhetorical scholarship has found rich source material in the disciplines of advertising, communications research, and consumer behavior. Advertising, considered as a kind of communication, is distinguished by its focus on causing action. Its goal is not simply to communicate ideas, educate, or persuade, but to move a prospect closer to a purchase. The editors of "Go Figure! New Directions in Advertising Rhetoric" have been involved in developing the scholarship of advertising rhetoric for many years. In this volume they have assembled the most current and authoritative new perspectives on this topic. The chapter authors all present previously unpublished concepts that represent advances beyond what is already known about advertising rhetoric. In the opening and closing chapters editors Ed McQuarrie and Barbara Phillips provide an integrative view of the current state of the art in advertising rhetoric

This new major work on critical marketing studies adopts a multi-disciplinary and international approach to a subject which has flourished over the past few years. Bringing together papers from a wide range of academic outlets - from both inside and outside of the traditional resources of the marketing discipline - the experienced editorial team of Mark Tadajewski and Robert Cluley have provided an invaluable service to scholars who cannot themselves spend the considerable time it takes to familiarise themselves with the spectrum of scholarship in this domain. The four-volume collection speaks to important emerging trends in the field; specifically with regard to the connections between critical marketing, contemporary theories of emotional, aesthetic and sexual labour, critical social marketing, macromarketing and political economy. Volume One: Critical Marketing and Critiques of Marketing Volume Two: Conceptual and Ethical Critiques Volume Three: Power, Resistance and Marketplace Boundaries Volume Four: The Structuring of Marketing and Consumer Practice

Although there has been an increasing interest in rural tourism in terms of research, training and teaching in recent years, its conceptualization and the relationships between concept and strategy are still poorly represented and not well understood. The need for such a critical understanding is particularly crucial as rural areas experience rapid change, and as tourism is viewed as a key element of development and regeneration. This volume provides an interdisciplinary approach to new directions in rural tourism, drawing on the latest conceptual thinking and evolving strategic roles. It brings together case study exemplification from the UK, Denmark, Norway, Austria, Spain, Slovenia, Poland, New Zealand and the Caribbean. It debates such key issues as sustainability and niche marketing. The book thus provides accessible material drawn from a range of environmental and cultural contexts and focuses attention on the nature and interrelationships between local and global issues in rural tourism and development.
