In David Aaker's pathbreaking book, \u003ci\u003eManaging Brand Equity, \u003c\/i\u003e managers discovered the value of a brand as a strategic asset and a company's primary source of competitive advantage. Now, in this compelling new work, Aaker uses real brand-building cases from Saturn, General Electric, Kodak, Healthy Choice, McDonald's, and others to demonstrate how strong brands have been created and managed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA common pitfall of brand strategists is to focus on brand attributes. Aaker shows how to break out of the box by considering emotional and self-expressive benefits and by introducing the brand-as-person, brand-as-organization, and brand-as-symbol perspectives. The twin concepts of brand identity (the brand image that brand strategists aspire to create or maintain) and brand position (that part of the brand identity that is to be actively communicated) play a key role in managing the \"out-of-the-box\" brand. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA second pitfall is to ignore the fact that individual brands are part of a larger system consisting of many intertwined and overlapping brands and subbrands. Aaker shows how to manage the \"brand system\" to achieve clarity and synergy, to adapt to a changing environment, and to leverage brand assets into new markets and products. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAaker also addresses practical management issues, introducing a set of brand equity measures, termed the brand equity ten, to help those who measure and track brand equity across products and markets. He presents and analyzes brand-nurturing organizational forms that are responsive to the challenges of coordinated brands across markets, products, roles, and contexts. Potentially destructive organizational pressures to change a brand's identity and position are also discussed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs executives in a wide range of industries seek to prevent their products and services from becoming commodities, they are recommitting themselves to brands as a foundation of business strategy.

In \u003cem\u003eThe Forgotten Man\u003c\/em\u003e, Amity Shlaes offers a striking reinterpretation of the Great Depression.

She shows how both Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt failed to understand the prosperity of the 1920s and heaped massive burdens on the country that more than offset the benefit of New Deal programs. The real question about the Depression, she argues, is not whether Roosevelt ended it with World War II. It is why the Depression lasted so long. From 1929 to 1940, federal intervention helped to make the Depression great--in part by forgetting the men and women who sought to help one another. \u003cem\u003eThe Forgotten Man\u003c\/em\u003e, offers a new look at one of the most important periods in our history, allowing us to understand the strength of American character today. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eShlaes, Amity:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003eAmity Shlaes is the author of four \u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e bestsellers: \u003cem\u003eThe Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Forgotten Man\/Graphic\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eCoolidge\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eThe Greedy Hand: How Taxes Drive Americans Crazy. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMiss Shlaes chairs the board of the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation and the Manhattan Institute's Hayek Book Prize, and serves as a scholar at the King's College.
