"Gursoy, Uysal, Sirakaya-Turk, Ekinci and Baloglu's "Handbook of Scales in Tourism and Hospitality Research" is a much longed for book in the field of tourism and hospitality. It is an extremely important and useful reference book for the tourism and hospitality fields as it is the first of its kind. Although there have been scales handbooks available in the market for a variety of other fields and disciplines (e.g. for management and marketing) for some time, no scales handbook existed for tourism and hospitality until this book has arrived." - Tourism Management
