Apologies for cross posting. Below are details of books available for review in
the Hospitality & Society, as well details of the latest issue and a call
for contributions to future issues.
1. Books Available for Review
We have copies of the following books available for review for the Hospitality & Society Journal:
Hall, C.M. (2013) Sustainable Culinary Systems: Local Foods, Innovation, Tourism and Hospitality. Abingdon: Routledge.
Sloan, P., Simons-Kaufman, C. and Legrand, W. (2012) Sustainable Hospitality and Tourism as Motors for Development: Case Studies from Developing Regions of the World. Abingdon: Routledge.
We are looking for critical but professional reviews around
1000 words in length that discuss the books’ content and their contributions to
the multidisciplinary understanding of hospitality and its relationship with
society. We usually ask for reviews to be returned to us within 6 weeks.
Please contact Peter Lugosi ([log in to unmask]) if you would like to write a review
and feel free to include some information about yourself and your interest in
the book. Sincere apologies if I don't respond to you individually if the book
is already allocated to a reviewer. I am usually inundated with responses and
often find it difficult to write to everyone individually.

Articles that stimulate debate, discussion and exchange across disciplines are welcomed, as well as review essays or short topical pieces that are provocative and problematic in nature.
