Review

'Amidst a precise and friendly exposition, Foxall presents his brilliant research program, based upon a behavioral model that integrates the soundest and most promising scientific approaches to consumer behavior, namely, behavioral psychology, marketing science and behavioral economics. The book bestows the reader with conceptual and empirical tools to interpret and explain consumer choices in natural settings, coherently exploring emotions, temporal discounting, demand sensitivity, utility maximization and neurophysiological events. Magnificent intellectual work carried out with rare philosophical and academic consistency.' --Jorge M. Oliveira-Castro, University of Brasilia, Brazil'Consumer behavior is shaped by its context and consequences. This book is a critical and valuable introduction to recent developments in consumer behavior analysis, written by a leading scholar. Professor Foxall has extended the domain of behavioral psychology and its relevance to marketing science and economics, in an interdisciplinary manner that only he is capable of achieving. The current ''technology/data revolution'' demands a focus on environmental-behaviour interaction.'--Valdimar Sigurdsson, Reykjavik University, Iceland
