Description
First, by incorporating an analysis of the controversy concerning the definition of marketing, Hunt more completely develops the thesis that marketing is a professional discipline that has multiple stakeholders.
Second, four new chapters are added and adapted from Hunt’s Controversy in Marketing Theory. These chapters analyze the “philosophy debates” within the field, including the controversies with respects to scientific realism, qualitative methods, truth, and objectivity.
