Access: Introduction to Travel and Tourism 2nd Edition

I have not yet read the book since I've just received it. However, for the first time, I wish to voice my discontentment with Amazon: The copy of the book I have received is a used one, full of cornered pages and hand-written notes in pencil. For the $92.35 I spent on it, I expected a brand new copy. If you are going to sell a used copy, let it be known ahead of time, and do discount it please. The same thing happened last week with another book, ("Little Brother" by Cory Doctorow), that I purchased from Amazon as a birthday gift for someone. That book had a couple of dark fingerprints on the pages, but I still gave the book because time was of the essence. From now on, I will think twice about purchasing "important" books from Amazon.

Book condition as described. Great price. Fast shipping. Highly recommend.

This book is one of my required textbooks for college. I didn't care much for the price of the book but it did come very quickly and it's in great shape.

Amazing

I love the easy flow of info and the side notes. The "This & That" sections are quite valuable. Helped me tremendously!

perfect for my class

It is very unfair that the one star reviews are not of the book but Amazon's service so I wrote a 5 star review of his book just based on my opinion of him as a teacher and based on his other books.

I've been in the travel industry since 1996, and in order to keep my competitive edge it requires me to stay on top of the ever changing trends. It is easy to do with Dr. Mancini's textbooks and training DVDs. But, when I opened this book (ACCESS, Introduction to Travel and Tourism) I actually said "WOW". I was very pleased with the layout, font size, contents of the book and the color selection used in highlighting the "Insider Tips". Yes, you can put your highlighter pen down because it's done for you. Like its author (Dr. Mancini) this book is filled will real-life travel experiences and it's a fun and easy read. Pick it up and compare it to other ordinary travel textbooks -- and you'll find there's no comparison!by Lynn J - aka (Gayle)

this book is full of useful information and great for anyone taking travel and tourism or someone that is just interested in travel
