I read with great interest and enthusiasm your book and found it very fascinating. It relies on your huge experience and should be a top priority in the reading list of anybody dealing with service business. You have a superb pedagogical talent and a amazing way of keeping the attention of the reader. When I started reading your book, I could hardly stop.

All of us engaged in providing a service would do well to read this book. It is particularly important in that it stays highly focused on the customer as well as the other stakeholders. It also takes our current thinking about services to a new and higher level. In introducing the concept of ServVAL which Andrew clearly defines and explains he makes the reader realise just how multifaceted adding value in the context of services is. It is a book that all of us should a keep accessible as it also serves as a very good reference book.

Andrew,
I just got back from a 2-week trip and saw that I had received your book on service value. I have only looked at it briefly, but you have packed an amazing amount of info in it.
Perhaps a better title would have been “The Encyclopedia of Selling Service Value.” Look forward to spending more time with it on my next trip. Thank you for your consideration.
