"Although there are many papers and articles on Small and medium-sized Tourism Enterprises this is the first book that focuses on family business issues within the tourism and hospitality industry." Dimitrios Buhalis, The Tourism Society Journal, June 2004 "This book elevates ths study of family businesses in tourism and serves as a very valuable first contribution and an important source of knowledge for future researchers and family businesses alike. A strength of the book as a text lies in the fact that the book integrates previously unpublished case histories and thus is research-based." A McIntosh, Journal of Sustainable Tourism "It is likely to be used and cited as a core research publication in this field, and is well worth reading and indeed purchasing. It does not seem to be intended as a teaching text, despite coincidentally having 13 chapters, but I would commend it strongly as supplementary material, not least because of its specialist bibliography. C Ollenburg, Journal of Ecotourism, 4(3), 2005 "I am certain that in future, whenever a student is engaged in small-business research of any kind and they come to me with a query, I shall reach for this book and say, 'Let's see what Getz et al. have to say on the subject.' Peter Jones, The Hospitality Review, 38, April 2005
