The era of "big data" has revolutionized many industries-including advertising. This is a valuable resource that supplies current, authoritative, and inspiring information about-and examples of-current and forward-looking theories and practices in advertising.

The New Advertising: Branding, Content, and Consumer Relationships in the Data-Driven Social Media Era supplies a breadth of information on the theories and practices of new advertising, from its origins nearly a quarter of a century ago, through its evolution, to current uses with an eye to the future.
