Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Intended for European students, this work presents the issues, illustrative examples, data and research concerning European consumer markets and behaviour, while retaining material from the US and covering the other major global markets. The text utilizes a five-part wheel structure, which moves from the micro- to the macro- level. It expands in focus and coverage from individual consumers and their internal dynamics, through group and household consumption decisions, to larger social structures/sub-cultures, and finally mass cultures consumption activities.

Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
