Review The New Marketing Manifesto: The 12 Rules for Building Successful Brands in the 21st Century (Business Essentials) / Texere Publishing,US:For decades marketing thought of itself as an objective and increasingly quantifiable science. It is ironic that just as it seemed to have won a place in the highest business councils of the land with its credo of putting the customer first, that everything should suddenly go horribly pear shaped. Somewhere between the launch of satellite television in the UK and the fall of Margaret Thatcher, all the certainties of consumer expectation, segmentation, behaviour and communication that underpinned the so-called "science" of marketing, seemed to evaporate. Since then marketers have been struggling in different ways to come to terms with splintering social structures, changing tastes and a fragmenting mediascape. Every week the marketing and business press reports some new wheeze or nostrum of the month as marketers attempted to develop a new vocabulary in a language they did not yet understand to deliver a message they were not yet sure of. Most prominent among them were leading-edge advertising agencies such as HHCL, Chiat Day and its subsequent incarnation in London, St Lukes. As planning director of St Lukes, John Grant can reasonably lay claim to be one of the creators of the new language of marketing. The significance of his book The New Marketing Manifesto, lies in the fact that for the first time it draws together all the different strands of modern practice in the creation and communication of brands, and provides a coherent intellectual framework or grammar for the new ideas. It also gives valuable insights into how one of the most creative and original advertising agencies in the world approaches its business. With great eloquence and insight Grant describes how the role of brands in society has changed over the past century, arriving at the startling conclusion that "brands are (now) surrogate traditions". [+]
Because they are now so much more important to society, they demand much more careful consideration he says. Perhaps "The New Marketing Primer" would have been a better title. Compellingly written, perhaps even overloaded with supporting evidence, Grant outlines the syntax of the "new marketing" with 12 rules for building successful brands in the 21st Century. This is that rare creature; an important book about marketing. Aimed at marketing service providers, people in marketing departments and anyone who has to make marketing decisions, ie, anyone in business, it is informative, stimulating and inspiring by turns. If there is one book you buy about marketing this year, this should be it. -Alex Benady.

Review The Accidental Theorist: And Other Dispatches from the Dismal Science (Penguin Business Library) / Penguin Books Ltd:When economics and ideology mix, the results often sound plausible, but in fact can be terribly wrong and lead to ill-conceived and sometimes dangerous economic policy. For several years, Paul Krugman, author of The Accidental Theorist and one of the most celebrated economists of the 1990s, has been punching holes in fashionable ideas such as the logic of supply-side economics and the evils of globalisation. The Accidental Theorist is a collection of Krugman's best published and unpublished essays that cover everything from the Asian financial crisis to inflation in America. Krugman's cause is neither left or right; rather it's the pursuit of clear thinking about economics that's unfettered by ideology. He writes, "But we should never be surprised when prominent people say foolish things about economics. The history of economic doctrines teaches us that the influence of an idea may have nothing to do with its quality-that an ideology can attract a devoted following, even come to control the corridors of power, without a shred of logic or evidence in its favor". If you've read and enjoyed Krugman's regular column for Slate, "The Dismal Science", or have admired his work in the New York Times, The Washington Monthly, and Foreign Affairs, you'll find that the The Accidental Theorist is a must-read. The essays in this book reflect a clairvoyant and playful mind that is patient enough to unravel and simplify-not dumb down-the arcane and lofty ideas of economics to something that the rest of us can understand. Highly recommended. -Harry C. [+]
