Excellent textbook for Marketing Research

From "problem definition" to "survey design" and "data analysis," Marketing Research takes you through every step of the process with a good mix of theory and examples. This was a required textbook for my MBA marketing research class. The concepts are clear and material is presented interestingly. You can learn a lot just by reading the book, but it will be even more valuable as a reference to a class. Many of the concepts are best learned by conducting your own research studies. McDaniel designed the book with coursework in mind and offers plenty of real-world applications.
