    • Ad Critique: How to Deconstruct Ads in order to Build Better Advertising

      Jan 2012 - now
      Author

      From the Sage Publishing site: "Ad Critique teaches advertising, marketing, and management students—both the "suits" and the "creatives"—how to effectively judge and critique creativity in advertising. This textbook is an instruction manual, a facilitator of dialogue, and a companion piece to classroom content. Its lessons result in actual skills that enable students to look at the creative product and embolden them to say something constructive and worthwhile."
