Three authors Michael Riley (organizational behavior, U. of Surrey, UK), Adele Ladkin (tourism, Bournemouth U., UK), and Edith Szivas (tourism, U. of Surrey) take a holistic approach to understanding tourism. Applying ideas from labor economics, work psychology, and industrial sociology, they examine tourism employment in its workplace context and in its broader economic and social environment. The nature of jobs and mobility patterns are especially considered. Productivity, pay, and occupational diversity are analyzed, and this analysis is applied to macro-level considerations. The book is distributed in the US by UTP Distribution. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
