Adland is a ground-breaking examination of modern advertising, from
its origins and evolution to the current advertising landscape.
Bestselling author and journalist Mark Tungate examines key developments
in advertising, from copy adverts, radio and television, to the
opportunities afforded by the explosion of digital media and then
interviews leading names in advertising today, including Jean-Marie Dru,
Sir Alan Parker, Sir John Hegarty and Sir Martin Sorrell, as well as
20th century industry luminaries such as Phil Dusenberry and George
Lois.
Exploring the roots of the advertising industry in New York and London,
from Hopkins and Lasker to the Mad Men of the 50s, Tungate then covers
today's big communication groups and the emerging markets of Eastern
Europe, Asia and Latin America. Adland offers a comprehensive
examination of a global industry and suggests ways in which it is likely
to develop in the future.
