The International Hotel Industry

Book excerpt: "Textbooks on the hotel industry are often limited in scope to only one discipline, perspective, or geographic area. The International Hotel Industry: Sustainable Management is international, interdisciplinary, and thought-provoking, allowing readers to understand management issues better by broadening the scope of their knowledge. Current and real examples of problems and issues are posed by the book through case studies and interviews with hotel managers around the world. Invaluable for use as a textbook in graduate and undergraduate courses in hospitality and hotel management, the book covers crucial areas of the industry such as effective marketing, human resource management, location, resource management, and sustainability."--BOOK JACKET.
