Creative marketers today visualize the importance that computer networks, television, radio, and cable will bring to the marketing world of the 21st century. While many electronic marketing applications--such as broadcast fax, telemarketing, and EDI--are well developed and understood in the context of business-to-business marketing, there is a gap in knowledge regarding the application of electronic marketing to consumers. Electronic Marketing and the Consumer fills that gap. Exceptionally comprehensive and current, this book includes a wide range of electronic marketing techniques, including direct response radio and television, and computers and the Internet. It also covers real-world cases and practical insights from the experiences of major consumer marketers such as Mary Kay Cosmetics and Dell Computer as well as expert advice on the future of electronic marketing and its likely impact on consumer behavior and society. Electronic Marketing and the Consumer is an invaluable resource for academics, researchers, and professionals in the fields of marketing, advertising, and communication technology.

'Advances in Tourism Economics' follows his predecessor 'Advances in Modern Tourism Research' (2007) in providing a thorough assessment of state-of-the-art economic research in this rapidly developing field. The authors start by analyzing the recent upsurge of model-based economic research in the field, which builds on powerful tools in quantitative economics, such as discrete choice models, social accounting matrices, data envelopment analyses, impact assessment models or partial computable equilibrium models including environmental externalities. The volume originates from this novel research spirit in the area and aims to offer an attractive collection of operational research tools and approaches. It forms an appealing record of modern tourism economics and positions the field within the strong tradition of quantitative economic research, with due attention for both the demand and supply side of the tourism sector, including technological and logistic advances.

In the next few years, it is expected that most businesses will have transitioned to the use of electronic commerce technologies, namely e-commerce. This acceleration in the acceptance of e-commerce not only changes the face of business and retail, but also has introduced new, adaptive business models.

To stay relevant, businesses must develop new techniques and strategies to remain competitive in a changing commercial atmosphere. The way in which e-commerce is being implemented, the business models that have been developed, and the applications including the benefits and challenges to e-commerce must be discussed to understand modern business. The Research Anthology on E-Commerce Adoption, Models, and Applications for Modern Business discusses the best practices, latest strategies, and newest methods for implementing and using e-commerce in modern businesses. This includes not only a view of how business models have changed and what business models have emerged, but also provides a focus on how consumers have changed in terms of their needs, their online behavior, and their use of e-commerce services. Topics including e-business, e-services, mobile commerce, usability models, website development, brand management and marketing, and online shopping will be explored in detail.
