"Marketing and advertising theories tend to reflect the national culture of their author, and [tend] to assume a population of global consumers. In this book, Marieke de Mooij, an experienced world pioneer in the field of marketing and advertising, shows that global consumers do not exist; instead she focuses on consumers as real people with real differences. Knowing and understanding this variety of consumers’ cultures is an essential condition for becoming an international marketing professional"
