If you don't mind, please post your thoughts about 'Hoopla.' I had been thinking of ordering it, but have read mixed reviews.

How about "Advertising, Concept and Copy" (Second Edition)? I've been thinking of getting this but not sure if this is as good as "Hey, Whipple...".

Another title that I've been thinking (and I will get this one) of getting is "The Advertising Concept Book" by Pete Barry. Any comments on this one before buy it?

Hi Guy,

Hey, Whipple, Squeeze This is really great but would fit most a Copywriter, Hoopla is a book based on the works, stuffs, emails, etc... on Crispin Porter+Bogusky agency..Expensive but its worth the money....Hoopla is a book that explain how an ad agency work in details published in an experimental way, The cover concept is out of the box., Creative advertising also is in the shortlist.... I would recommend the 3 of them...
