<p><strong>"This book is unique! Prominent advertising scholars offer in-depth theoretical reflections on their field of study. Given the authority of all individual authors, the chapters provide readers with the tools to answer the most important questions about advertising. It is an essential read for both the novice and the experienced advertising researcher." </strong><em>--Hilde Voorveld, University of Amsterdam</em></p><p><strong>"Rodgers and Thorson have compiled an essential and thorough set of chapters by highly-regarded experts in advertising. This volume is a must-read for advertising scholars, students, and practitioners alike. <i>Advertising Theory</i> covers topics ranging from audiences to online videos and serves as a grand overview of the current state of the field, while also including some historical perspective and a look toward the future. The breadth and depth of <i>Advertising Theory </i>makes it a uniquely valuable text."</strong><em> -- Patrick Vargas, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign</em></p><p><strong>"This book brings together an impressive series of advertising scholars, and the coverage of all of the relevant topics in the field is comprehensive and up-to-date. I am particularly impressed with the inclusion of rapidly growing topics of interest like mobile, social media, in-game advertising, and digital video advertising. I love seeing the cutting-edge coverage of such important topics for me as gender roles, ethics, and international/cross-cultural. This is a very useful book for not only students interested in studying advertising, but also scholars and ad practitioners. I plan to add this to my reference library."</strong> <em>-- John B. Ford, Old Dominion University</em></p>
