<p><strong>'Thoughtful, thorough and intellectually pleasing ... provides a historical perspective missing in earlier texts ... This is no dry and dusty academic tone or technocratic treatise on place marketing.'</strong> - <em>Local Government Studies</em><br /><br /><strong>'A fascinating tour-de-force, which is a great addition to the literature on urban regeneration and local economic development. It should be a great help to anyone putting a marketing brochure together.'</strong> - <em>Planning and Design</em><br /><br /><strong>'This book, both in content and style, was a pleasure to read. The text was delightfully illustrated with posters and other "place selling" graphics. </strong><em>Selling Places</em><strong> was a thoughtful study of how to market, and how not to market, communities.'</strong> - <em>Ontario Planning Journal</em><br /><br /><strong>'The reader interested in the aesthetics of advertising over the years will find much of value in this work.'</strong> - <em>Enterprise & Society</em><br /><br /><strong>'Ward's book, filled with delights, is beautiful, enjoyable and stimulating.'</strong> - <em>H-Urban</em></p>
