Christou eloquently escorts the reader through the hallways of philosophy to illuminate the processes of giving and receiving in a thought-provoking way through concepts from Ancient Greece that remain relevant today.

«This book provides a thoughtful reflection on the domain of receiving and giving behaviours in hospitality and tourism, with ethical implications for the tourism industry. The various chapters, though eclectic, cover a variety of topical issues, adopting at times a positive psychology or tourist misbehaviour lens. This book is a valuable resource for tourism and hospitality researchers and practitioners.»
