About this title

Review

“I have highly recommended the previous edition of this book by these authors and my strong recommendation continues with this edition. I am delighted they have expanded the workbook to include the entirety of Foodservice Organizations, A Managerial and Systems Approach. In my opinion, all instructors who teach foodservice management related courses would find this book a tremendous resource for their course, whether using a Problem-based Learning approach or the case study method, as this text will facilitate an interesting, active learning environment for students.”
