International Handbook of Skill, Education, Learning, and Research Development in Tourism and Hospitality
This handbook provides new dimensions and directions to design tourism education curriculums and transform students' learning. It delves into issues such as job opportunities, business opportunities, required skill sets, and the role of critical and creative thinking in tourism education, and focuses on a shift in mindset from R&D (research and development) to L&D (learning and development), to aid in gaining in-the-field knowledge. It presents a global perspective on the latest trends, innovative curriculum, research, and skill needs in the travel, tourism, and hotel industry via empirical, theoretical, and conceptual chapters, as well as through global case studies. This handbook explores how to develop the skills, attributes and prospects for employment in these competitive industries, and also highlights what employers in the tourism and hospitality sectors expect from graduate and/or post-graduate candidates. Besides examining the contribution of tourism education towards a better society, this handbook introduces a new way of designing curriculums, and examines the past practices, current trends, and future opportunities in the field.

4Gs Of Good Health
Do you know that if you just eat the right foods, you can control your appetite and weight, remove cravings, control moods, manage sleep and much more? Each of us today wants to be healthy and lead a balanced life. The pandemic has also taught us how important it is to have strong immunity. Yet we struggle with what to eat and what not to. Noted dietician and nutritionist Ishi Khosla says that our gut is the control panel of our health. Our forefathers knew it. That is why it is said, 'Jaise ann vaisa mann' or you are what you eat. Ishi takes it a step further when she says, 'We are not only what we eat, but what we digest-and what we DON'T eat!' In this book, she distils decades of experience and knowledge and combines it with the wisdom of the past to provide an insight into the science of the 4 Gs-Gut, Girth, Gluten and Glucose-and their connection with each other, so we can modify our eating habits and lifestyle in a permanent manner. Remember, our bodies are forgiving and capable of healing. It's NEVER too late!

Having said that, we aren't about to rock the boat and have faithfully brought to you, via our cover story, six inspiring women who did choose to rock the boat and how.
