Writings and Activities
Professor Kotler's book, Marketing Management (14th edition), is the world's most widely used graduate level textbook in marketing. His other textbooks include Principles of Marketing and Marketing: An Introduction. Kotler has also written fifty other books on such subjects as museums, performing arts, place marketing, poverty alleviation, innovation, professional services, religious institutions, healthcare, education, tourism, hospitality, and corporate social responsibility.
He developed new concepts in marketing including social marketing, atmospherics, demarketing, megamarketing, turbomarketing and synchromarketing. He believes that marketing is a major economic discipline that goes beyond promotion and selling to include product development, distribution and pricing theory and practice, often called the 4Ps. Kotler has consulted many large companies in the areas of marketing strategy, planning and organization, and international marketing.
He presents seminars to companies and other organizations in major international cities and countries around the world on the latest marketing developments. "He is the father of Marketing Management" says Ashutosh Rathi.

Famous quotes containing the words writings and/or activities:
“An able reader often discovers in other people’s writings perfections beyond those that the author put in or perceived, and lends them richer meanings and aspects.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“The most remarkable aspect of the transition we are living through is not so much the passage from want to affluence as the passage from labor to leisure.... Leisure contains the future, it is the new horizon.... The prospect then is one of unremitting labor to bequeath to future generations a chance of founding a society of leisure that will overcome the demands and compulsions of productive labor so that time may be devoted to creative activities or simply to pleasure and happiness.”
—Henri Lefebvre (b. 1901)
