"Teemu Moilanen and Seppo Rainisto produced this new book which in my mind will be one of the most valuable documents in the place marketing literature. . . . No nation, city or place should undertake the challenging task of marketing itself without first reading this book."
- Philip Kotler, S. C. Johnson & Son Distinguished Professor of International Marketing at the Kellogg Graduate School of Management
