This is the definitive textbook for the planning and implementation of programs designed to bring about social change. The authors take key marketing principles and show readers how to apply them to campaigns and efforts to improve health, decrease injuries, protect the environment, build communities, and enhance financial well-being. Social marketing has grown in its sophistication and application to a wider array of social problems, and the Fourth Edition captures the momentum and excitement of this burgeoning field. "I finally had an opportunity this weekend to review the fourth edition of Lee and Kotler′s Social Marketing: Influencing Behaviors for Good. What a treat to see an entirely new set of case examples that cover a wide range of social marketing applications. The book also incorporates new ideas from disciplines beyond traditional marketing borders, such as behavioral economics. Most importantly, the book retains its solid pedagogical approach, with clear explanations of social marketing′s principles and the steps that make up the strategic planning process. Even if you have a copy of a previous edition, I recommend you add this one to your bookshelf." -Carol Bryant, Florida Prevention Research Center at the University of South Florida -- Caroln Bryant ― Florida Prevention Research Center at the University of South Florida Published On: 2011-11-27 "As teachers of behavioral science and practitioners of social marketing, we strongly recommend this volume to students as a reliable and well presented text, to teachers as a sound, thoroughly researched and multifaceted resource and to researchers as a compendium of cases and models from around the world." -- Gideon Arulmani, PhD. ― Gideon Arulmani, PhD.
