Since then the book has sold more than 375,000 copies in English in the various editions and is now available in 29 languages from Albanian to Vietnamese. Hundreds of colleges and universities around the world use it as a text in class and many companies require all marketing and PR staff to read a copy. I’m excited that the newly updated 6th edition is out in the next few days in the USA and will soon reach other countries around the world. The new 6th edition includes a dozen fresh new examples of success. I’ve also updated many of the existing case studies that appear throughout the book. I’ve added sections on some of the important new services that have emerged since the previous edition including Facebook Live and Snapchat. I also revised and streamlined the book to make it more readable. To be honest, it got a little bloated over the past decade. I removed a bunch of content that just wasn’t important enough resulting in a book that’s about 30 pages shorter than the 5th edition. [The 6th Edition of The New Rules of Marketing & PR](https://vimeo.com/227230819) from [David Meerman Scott](https://vimeo.com/dmscott) on [Vimeo](https://vimeo.com). The biggest such change was the [elimination of the chapter on mobile marketing](https://www.webinknow.com/its-just-marketing). It may seem radical to get rid of the chapter on the marketing aspect of reaching people via mobile devices and mobile applications. These days we’re using our mobile devices more than ever. But that’s precisely why I cut the chapter. Mobile marketing is now so important that it seemed odd to dedicate just one chapter out of twenty-four. In the coming months, I expect to go into the studio to read the audiobook version myself(!) I’m still working out the details but the plan is to publish the audiobook version via Audible and make that available in Q4 2017. Many thanks to all of you who have read earlier editions. One of my greatest joys in life is hearing from people who have transformed their business and changed their life as a result of the ideas in [*The New Rules of Marketing & PR.*](https://www.davidmeermanscott.com/books/the-new-rules-of-marketing-and-pr/) While I’m proud that my ideas sparked something, it is you who did the work to change your mindset on how marketing and public relations have changed and it was you who implemented the ideas. **We’ve certainly come a long way together in the past decade!**  [![New Rules of Marketing and PR](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/413105/112bb6d7-07dd-4985-b988-211b5008fd39.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/413105/112bb6d7-07dd-4985-b988-211b5008fd39) [ David Meerman Scott ](https://www.davidmeermanscott.com/blog/author/david-meerman-scott) David Meerman Scott is a business growth strategist, advisor to clever entrepreneurs who are building emerging companies, and the international bestselling author of a dozen books published in 30 languages.
