Kotler developed new concepts in marketing including atmospherics, demarketing, megamarketing, turbomarketing and synchromarketing. He believes that marketing theory needs to go beyond price theory and incorporate the dynamics of innovation, distribution and promotion systems into analyzing, explaining and predicting economic outcomes. Kotler has worked for many large companies in the areas of marketing strategy, planning and organization, and international marketing. He presents seminars in major international cities and countries around the world on the latest marketing developments to companies and other organizations.

Fascinating textbook with comprehensible concepts and well-presented examples in Asia. Although I did not major in Marketing, I find this book intriguing and applicable in developing customer-oriented mindset.
It's not like I want to read it, but it is my compulsory textbook. Concepts are explained well with real examples from Asia, but please, I do not want to touch the textbook again, not in my life time =))))
