        Knowing COVID-19

        The pandemic and beyond

        by Des Fitzgerald, Fred Cooper

        Knowing COVID-19 demonstrates how researchers in the humanities shone a light on some of the many hidden problems of COVID-19, in the very depths of the pandemic crisis. Drawing on eight COVID-19 research projects, the volume shows how humanities researchers, alongside colleagues in the clinical and life sciences, addressed some of the major critical unknowns about this new infectious disease - from the effects of racism to the risks of deploying shame; from how to design an effective instructional leaflet to how to communicate effectively to bus passengers. Across eight novel case studies, the book showcases how humanities research during a pandemic is not only about interpreting the crisis when it has safely passed, but how it can play a vital, collaborative and instrumental role as events are still unfolding.

        COVID-19 and Other Coronaviruses, Second Edition

        by Patrick G. Guilfoile, Ph.D.

        In December of 2019, the first reports came from Wuhan, China of a new respiratory infection that was causing serious illness. The cases were initially associated with a market where live animals were being sold for food. By tracing the outbreak, cases were retrospectively identified as early as November 17, 2019 and some undetected cases may have occurred even prior to that time. The first death from this new illness was reported on January 11, 2020. Since then this disease has spread across the globe achieving pandemic status and disrupting contemporary life. This new volume in the Deadly Diseases and Epidemics series, COVID-19 and Other Coronaviruses, Second Edition, traces the history of coronaviruses, past outbreaks of coronavirus-related illnesses, such as SARS, and explains the nature of SARS-CoV-2, the virus behind COVID-19. It also includes a new chapter dedicated to the emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants that are appearing. Other chapters include: History of Coronaviruses Testing for and Diagnosis of Coronavirus Infections Transmission of Coronavirus Diseases Molecular Biology and Immunology of Coronavirus Diseases Prevention of COVID-19 and Other Coronavirus Diseases Outlook for COVID-19 and the Potential for Future Coronavirus Pandemics

        Emotional Intelligence in Tourism and Hospitality

        by Erdogan Koc

        Emotional intelligence (EI) is the capability to recognize one's own emotions and those of others. The use of emotional information guides thinking and behavior, allowing adjustment of emotions to adapt to environments. As tourism and hospitality services are produced and consumed simultaneously, with a high level of contact between employees and customers, the development of EI of employees in tourism and hospitality establishments is vital. This book has a skills-based approach and explains how emotional intelligence can be developed in tourism and hospitality students and employees.

        The pandemic and beyond

        by Pascale Aebischer, Rachael Nicholas

        This book offers insights into some of the digital innovations, structural adaptations and analogue solutions that enabled live performance in the UK to survive through the COVID-19 pandemic.

Through sections that address digital innovations, workforce resilience and programming live performances outdoors and in community settings, this book provides practical insights into the challenges live performance faced during the pandemic. It shows how, in order to survive, individuals and companies within the sector drew on the creativity and resourcefulness of its workforce, and on new and existing networks. In these accounts, the pandemic functioned as catalyst for technological innovations, stock-taking regarding exploitative industry structures, and a re-valuing of the role of live performance for community-building.

        Managing Quality of Life in Tourism and Hospitality

        by Muzaffer Uysal, M. Joseph Sirgy, Stefan Kruger

        Quality-of-life research in tourism and hospitality has gained much momentum in the past two decades. This line of research covers three main areas of focus: (i) the impacts of specific tourism and hospitality programmes on the overall quality of life of tourists/guests; (ii) the providers of goods and services; (iii) tourist communities, including the impact of different programmes and events on the quality of life of residents in these communities. Focusing on these key subjects, Managing Quality of Life in Tourism and Hospitality provides a portfolio of selected cases showing best practice and delivering them to the forefront of knowledge application, with examples in tourism and hospitality settings. Best practice case studies are included throughout, providing practical implications and lessons learned. These lessons can be applied by tourism and hospitality practitioners and community leaders, and be used to further research by academics working within tourism and hospitality. The book offers an exciting and refreshing approach to quality-of-life research in tourism and hospitality. Key features include: - Best practice and evidence-based case studies. - Broad coverage that includes tourists, industry and local communities. - International application, with material from various countries across the world.

        The History and Evolution of Tourism

        The History and Evolution of Tourism

        by Prokopis A Christou

        This book provides an overview of the history and evolution of tourism to the present, and speculates on possible and probable change into the future. It discusses significant travel, tourism and hospitality events while referring to tourism-related notions and theories that have been developed since the beginnings of tourism. Even so, its scope moves beyond simply a detailed historical account of facts and events from the past and attempts to bridge these with contemporary issues, challenges and concerns, so that readers can connect tourism past with the present and future, which helps with decision making and even the development of new theories. Despite its academic orientation, the book is written in an approachable style enabling a clear and solid understanding of how tourism has evolved through the centuries. It uses several practitioner-linked, real-life examples and case studies derived from organisations and enterprises across all aspects of the tourism, travel and events industries. This book will be of great interest to academics, practitioners and students from a wide variety of disciplines, including tourism, hospitality, and events, sociology, psychology and human geography.

        On Geo-Analysis and the aesthetics of precarity

        by Sam Okoth Opondo, Michael J. Shapiro

        Passages: On geo-analysis and the aesthetics of precarity is a multi-genre and transdisciplinary text addressing themes such as colonialism, nuclear zones of abandonment, migration control regimes, transnational domestic work, the biocolonial hostilities of the hospitality industry, legal precarities behind the international criminal justice regime, the shadow-worlds of the African soccerscape, and immunity regimes related to the COVID-19 pandemic. This book invites inquiry into today's apocalyptic narratives, humanitarian reason, and international criminal justice regimes, as well as the precarity generated by citizen time and 'consulate time'. The aesthetic breaks emerging from the book's image-text montage draw attention to the ethics of encounter and passage that challenges colonial, domestic, and nation-statist sovereignty regimes of inattention.

        Strategic Planning Systems in Hospitality and Tourism

        by Edited by Luiz Moutinho

        Managers practice in a constantly changing environment, creating the need for effective strategic planning. However, to date the importance of strategic planning to hospitality and tourism has not been the subject of detailed empirical academic research. This book fills that gap. It contains the latest research which integrates theory with practice, including two new diagnostic tools developed by the authors, the Strategic Planning Index (SPI) and Marketing Planning Index (MPI). The tourism and hospitality industry is examined from a strategic perspective, including case illustrations and detailed studies of two major hotel groups, along with the relevance of the strategic planning process. The book goes on to describe strategic planning systems, at both the corporate and business unit level. International examples are used to demonstrate how these concepts and techniques can be incorporated into the design and implementation of effective strategic planning systems, in order to improve performance in hospitality and tourism organisations. This book is essential reading for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, practitioners and consultants in management and business studies, hospitality and tourism.
