The book will prove useful not only for anyone studying hospitality, but also for hospitality managers who may wish to better understand the rapidly developing industry in Asia. -- Chanin Donavanik, Chairman of the Executive Board, Dusit International The book provides a fresh new perspective on the development of the hospitality industry in Asia from cultural, economic, and social dimensions. It is a welcome addition to the literature in hospitality studies and will be an excellent text for students and managers who want to develop a deeper understanding of the new 'Asian waves' in the development of the hospitality industry. -- Billy Bai, Professor and Associate Dean, William F Harrah College of Hospitality, University of Nevada, Las Vegas The hospitality industry has gone through different stages of development with unique 'paradigms' in each stage. The rapid development of the hospitality industry in Asia has resulted in the new 'Asian paradigm' which is very well articulated in this book.
