I recently enrolled in a series of travel courses through a community college. The first/introductory class required this textbook. It's not a book I would have just picked up, but I found the entire text thoroughly enjoyable. The chapters are quite informative even for veteran travelers. For new, or potential, travel students they provide an excellent overview of various segments of the travel industry. It's easy reading and Mr. Mancini throws in the odd, funny comment here and there. I looked forward to picking it up every day.

Marc Mancini, Phd, is the travel industry's most well-known industry educator and speaker. As a travel school student (and later as an Instructor at the same school) I watched his many travel education videos and read many of his textbooks. He clearly presents topics vital to the travel industry and explains in depth subjects which should be required reading for all professionals in the industry. Now, even with over 13 years working in various segments of the highly diverse travel and tourism field, I find reading Dr. Mancini's books and viewing his entertaining and informative videos enhances my everyday performance. I highly recommend Dr. Mancini's materials to all currently employed in the travel industry and those considering a career change!!!
