Riassunto

Marketing, Rhetoric and Control examines the tensions between the science and the magical in marketing through analysis of the rhetorical and narrative strategies embedded in practitioner and academic discourse.

Testo aggiuntivo

"There is nothing "mere" about rhetoric. Long demonised and often misrepresented, rhetoric is an ancient artform whose time has come. As Miles shows in this exemplary text, rhetoric is central to the modern marketing condition.　Marketers' seemingly magical ability to cast spells of delight, desire, distinction over delirious consumers is rooted in their rhetorical acumen. A sagacious review of the principal rhetorical traditions and a brilliantly-written reading of marketing principles and practices, Miles' book is a rhetorical triumph. In a word, it's magic!" -Stephen Brown, Ulster University, United Kingdom
