Artificial intelligence (AI) and emotional intelligence (EI) are both hugely important and influential to the hospitality and tourism sectors. Optimising Tourism and Hospitality with Artificial and Emotional Intelligences is the first book to look at both AI and EI as integrated phenomena as applied to both to the tourism and hospitality sectors.
AI and EI are hot topics but can be seen as different sand arguably opposing areas. EI is seen as something only capable of by humans, not robots or computers– this book shows how the two can work symbiotically to the benefit of both industries.

*Empirical studies: each chapter includes an empirical study conducted from Australia, China, Vietnam, and/or Portugal.

*Focus: Each chapter will have examples, issues, and photos from various sources.

*List of useful websites, associations and periodicals.
