Summary: A Solid Effort!
Review: Information technology (IT) fits the tourism industry like those three-fingered white gloves fit Mickey Mouse - but you have to really understand what you are doing if you want to hang out with the big thinkers. Just ask authors and researchers Hannes Werthner and Stefan Klein, specialists on IT applications for the tourism trade. They teach a complex class, here, about getting destination and attraction information to travelers and about getting tourism data back to service providers. This IT theme park is a place where insiders give the professional scoop to other insiders. The language is highly technical, theoretical and complex (perhaps, now and then, even more complex than the ideas at hand warrant). Casual visitors will like the extensive source documentation, charts, graphs and arrow-filled diagrams, but the text is written for folks who live in this industry day in and day out. If you already know info technology and tourism, we from getAbstract invite you to enjoy this expert rundown on how all the internal mysteries relate. There's nothing Mickey Mouse about it.

Review: This book is rubbish! It is nothing more than a very long and pedantic list of topics. There is no explanation of anything.The english is also near comical. The only saving grace is the extensive list of references for which it earns 1 star.

Review: This is an excellent book providing a comprehensive look at information technology in the tourism industry. The perspective of the authors is clearly IT. I would strongly recommend this book as a reader for senior level undergraduate and graduate level classes in this area. The authors should be commended for providing the first comprehensive look at the tourism industry.
