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.
