From the reviews of the second edition:
"I highly recommend this book, for everyone that works or study marketing, business strategy or is interested in CRM, it's a must have! The book provides a nice integration of academic thinking and practical CRM strategy and implementation. On the end of each chapter the authors included a Reference list, which is great specially if you are using the book for research and also on chapter 4 they have some exercises questions."
