Marketing And The Quality Of Life

Marketing and the Quality of Life

Marketing and the Quality of Life was edited by Fred D. Reynolds and Hiram C. Barksdale. This work represents a set of proceedings presented at an AMA sponsored workshop in 1978. The papers explored, from a variety of perspectives, the conceptual and measurement problems involved in studying marketing and quality of life, as well as identified the areas required for research. These papers are divided in three parts: conceptual issues, measurement issues and integration, and needed research. They attempted to answer various questions pertaining to the quality of life as a criterion for marketing and consumer satisfaction.
