We are proud that this Tenth Edition of Global Marketing marks more than two decades of pub- lication success. In this new edition, as in prior editions, we take an environmental and strategic approach to global marketing by outlining the major dimensions of the global business environ- ment. We also provide a set of conceptual and analytical tools that prepare students to success- fully apply the 4Ps when pursuing careers in global marketing or related areas.

Guided by our experience using the text in undergraduate and graduate classrooms and in corporate training seminars, we have revised, updated, and expanded Global Marketing. One of our challenges in developing a new edition of Global Marketing is the rate of change in the global business environment. Yesterday’s impossibility becomes today’s reality; new companies explode onto the scene; company leadership changes abruptly. In short, any book can be quickly outdated by events. Even so, we set out to create a compelling narrative that captures the unfold- ing drama that is in inherent in marketing in the globalization era.

When Principles of Global Marketing first appeared in 1996, we invited readers to “look ahead” to such developments as the ending of America’s trade embargo with Vietnam, Europe’s new single market, Daimler AG’s Smart car, Volkswagen’s global ambitions, and Whirlpool’s expansion into emerging markets. This newly revised edition also surveys important current developments in the international arena, including Britain’s tortuous path towards Brexit, China’s ascendance on the world stage, evolving trade relations in the Trump era, achievements by entrepreneurs such as Elon Musk, plus much more.

We are passionate about the subject of global marketing; if our readers detect a note of enthusiasm in our writing, then we have been successful. Our goal for all ten editions has been the same: to write a book that is authoritative in content yet relaxed and assured in style and tone. One instructor using the Ninth Edition wrote us to say, “I love the text, and really like the way it engages students. That is invaluable.” We believe that you will find latest edition of Global Marketing to be the most engaging, up-to-date, relevant, useful text of its kind.

We recommend pairing the Tenth Edition with Pearson’s MyLab Marketing. MyLab Mar- keting is a teaching and learning platform that empowers you to reach every student. By combin- ing content from Global Marketing with digital tools and a flexible platform, MyLab Marketing personalizes the learning experience and will help your students learn and retain key course concepts while developing skills that future employers are seeking in their candidates.

ChAPTER 1 • INTRODUCTION TO GlObAl MARkETING 35

Exhibit 1-14 Apple cofounder Steve Jobs wore many hats during his illustri- ous career, including inventor, entrepreneur, CEO, and visionary technolo- gist. He was also a master showman, a storyteller, and marketing genius. His appearances at product launches are the stuff of legend, and under his guidance Apple’s must-have products—including the iPod, the iPhone, and the iPad—were, simply put, the epitome of “cool.” Source: Paul Sakuma/AP Images.
