Chinese Summary/中文概要: 美國影集《廣告狂人》(Mad Men)的創作靈感來源!廣告界不能缺少的一本書!
故事從一名的廣告業務Jerry Delia Femina與一群同事正在辦公室裡試圖爭取某日本客戶「Panasonic」的廣告合約開始。突然間,Jerry的眼前出現一句標語或稱為廣告詞,他大聲喊出:「From Those Wonderful Folks Who Gave You Pearl Harbor」(從那些送給你珍珠港的人們談起),這樣反諷文案從未在出現在先前的廣告中,這不僅讓他一舉成了廣告界的名人,更將美國廣告帶入輝煌的黃金時期。
書中廣告宗師Jerry Delia Femina將述說他在美國廣告業輝煌時期在紐約市麥迪遜大道的廣告事務所的工作與生活,以及周邊的人與事。同時也涉及到美國六十年代的社會風貌以及社會改革與變遷。此書在1970年首次出版時不僅成為當時的暢銷書,更激發了一部電視連續劇《廣告狂人》(Mad Men)的創作靈感。(Vincent)

"The ’Mad Men’ of this book were not mad at all. They were clever and articulate proponents of the American Dream. The book evokes a long-lost era of American self-confidence and optimism, and helps explain how America became a cultural icon." ---Maurice Saatchi, co-founder of Saatchi & Saatchi and M&C Saatchi
