"This is an innovative textbook that adds an exciting dimension to the teaching of marketing strategy by highlighting the effects of technology and globalisation on marketing practices." Len Tiu Wright, Department of Marketing, De Montford University Finally! A book that takes a European perspective. "Marketing Strategies: A Twenty-first Century Approach "examines marketing from different angles in order to create a broader understanding of the discipline. Blending theory and practice, Ashok Ranchhod takes a radical approach. There is little discussion of the 4 PAs because strategies are often company specific.
