The literature keeps growing

Article Type: The literature keeps growing From: Journal of Historical Research in Marketing, Volume 3, Issue 1

The Journal of Historical Research in Marketing does not include a conventional book review section although we will from time to time publish in Explorations & Insights historical review essays of “lost and found” historically significant books about marketing. However, we will include at the end of some issues, as we have below, a list of recently published books about marketing history and the history of marketing thought that have been brought to our attention. This service to readers is intended to follow the practice followed in Retrospectives in Marketing, the newsletter edited by Stanley C. Hollander and published by Michigan State University from 1981 until the early 2000s. Retrospectives in Marketing, usually included a list of recently published books on historical research in marketing under the heading “The literature keeps growing”.

Ernest Dichter was the twentieth century’s ultimate seducer. Dichter’s research went into what makes shoppers tick and transformed the way the world looked at the relationship between products and consumers. His analysis of car and food advertising were a milestone in the psychological creation of the modern consumer.
