Have you ever wondered how marketing campaigns such as Microsoft's "Where do you want to go today?" came to be? Now, you can find the answer in the Encyclopedia of Major Marketing Campaigns.There is a growing need for information that describes successes and failures of market trends, strategies and initiatives.
