"This Handbook offers an invaluable strategic perspective on the hospitality industry and is a welcome antidote to a field dominated by many operationally-based texts. The concise chapters, all written by authors with a research pedigree, offer insights into contemporary topics with the added bonus of illustrative case studies and extensive reference lists. The handbook will be a ‘must have’ for both undergraduate and postgraduate users, particularly aspiring future corporate managers." - Professor Angela Roper, International Hotel and Resort Management, University of West London
