The creation and management of customer relationships is fundamental to the practice of marketing. Marketers have long maintained a keen interest in relationships: what they are, why they are formed, what effects they have on consumers and the marketplace, how they can be measured and when and how they evolve and decline. While marketing research has a long tradition in the study of business relationships between manufacturers and suppliers and buyers and sellers, attention in the past decade has expanded to the relationships that form between consumers and their brands (such as products, stores, celebrities, companies or countries). The aim of this book is to advance knowledge about consumer-brand relationships by disseminating new research that pushes beyond theory, to applications and practical implications of brand relationships that businesses can apply to their own marketing strategies. With contributions from an impressive array of scholars from around the world, this volume will provide students and researchers with a useful launch pad for further research in this blossoming area.
Zombies are cautionary forms of humankind's most universally cherished ideal--life after death. Ragged, ill-spoken, rotting zombies (or the post-dead) seem socially awkward beside the more popular and aristocratic undead, like Count Dracula. The humble zombie remains, for the most part, unappreciated and unacknowledged--until now. The first exhaustive historical overview of zombie films, this book's lengthy entries evaluate more than 200 movies from 16 countries over a 65-year period from the early 1930s to the late 1990s. It covers everything from large studio films to backyard videography, and touches on memorable television episodes and miscellaneous shorts. An introduction traces the evolution of the genre and interprets the broader significance of the zombie in contemporary Western mythology.

Czasem miłość uderza nas w najmniej sprzyjających okolicznościach. Doskonale wiedzą o tym Jasmina i Dragan. Uczucie połączyło ich w trakcie wojny na Bałkanach. Ona Chorwatka, on Serb – to nie miało prawa się zdarzyć! Na przeszkodzie staje polityka i rodziny po dwóch stronach barykady. Zakochani nie tracą jednak wiary w szczęśliwe zakończenie. Na duchu podnosi ich pasja do kultury i teatru. Czy to wystarczy, by przetrwać? „Nie czas na miłość" to nie tylko historia trudnej miłości. To także opowieść o tym, jak bałkańska rzeczywistość lat 90. diametralnie różniła się od tej, którą przeżywaliśmy w Polsce. Agnieszka Walczak-Chojecka – (ur. 1986) polska...
