About the Book
The book “Fundamentals of Travel and Tourism” is meant for students studying the concept of tourism at an elementary level. This is the reason; each and every concept of tourism has been explained in great detail and in the simplest manner possible. The idea is to make the students understand the subject of tourism, its interrelationships with other subjects, its operational aspects and many other nuances.
The book has been written in simple language so that the students reading this book for the first time do not feel overwhelmed by it. Not only meant for the students of tourism, this book can also be read by people who are interested in this sector and wish to know more about it. I have taken care that no slang or jargons related to this industry are used in this book so as the understanding is not hampered. The inclusion of tourism concepts is done in such a way that it takes you step-by-step towards proper understanding of this concept.
Tourism is a complex process and various other subject streams such as economics, management, psychology, sociology, environmental science, etc. plays a role. I have also incorporated several appendices in the book to make it more interesting as well enhances the knowledge of the reader. I sincerely hope that the readers will enjoy reading this book and derive suitable benefits from the same.

Industrial tourism presents opportunities, both in terms of income and as a tool of management, for individual firms who open their doors - and consequently their local regions - to the public. But how can these opportunities be organised in a way that enables both the city and the enterprise to take advantage? This book analyzes the conditions for successful industrial tourism development using case studies of Wolfsburg, Cologne, Pays de la Loire, Turin, Shanghai and Rotterdam, and makes astute recommendations for cities and companies with ambitions in this field.
