Good book!!!

This book is very informative and well-organized. It's very easy to find what you're looking for...and it's got it all when it comes to information that pertains to purchasing for the industry. Very up-to-date...I especially liked the "Technology Applications for Purchasing" chapter.

A Comprehensive Understanding to Purchasing in the Hospitali

This textbook succinctly outlines and dicusses purchasing processes in the hospitality industry. It is therefore essential for any nonpurchasing agent who wants a comprehensive view of the purchasing function and activities to understand the management of a successful operation. The book has a lot of useful hands-on information and would be valuable to any person who will be assuming any purchasing related activities in the hospitality industry. As one who has studied hospitality management and worked in the industry, the detailed explanations are very precise and correct and very instructive. The book is recommended for nonpurchasing agents, but I recommend it for anyone who wants to understand one of managements' biggest headaches: purchasing.
