Who does a woman turn to when, more than anything in the world, she wants to have a child, but her body refuses to cooperate? Sometimes, all you need is a miracle. In 1998, when thirty-seven-year-old Sandra Watson Rapley and her husband Craig married, both decided that they wanted children right away. Sandra expected some difficulty trying to conceive because of uterine fibroids she had removed years ago. However, she was not prepared for the turbulent - and often times disappointing - road she would have to travel to make her dream a reality. After many failed attempts at drug therapy, ovulation calculation, and in-vitro fertilization, the Rapleys finally learned the devastating truth - fibroids inside Sandra's uterus were preventing a successful pregnancy. Following months of discussion, testing, and counseling, the miracle that the Rapleys were praying for arrived in the form of a surrogate. Their sister-in-law, Victoria, selflessly volunteered to be their embryo's oven, and on August 29, 2001, Victoria gave birth to the Rapleys twin sons. Sandra Watson Rapley's struggle with infertility, through the emotional highs and lows and the exciting time when her dream of having a child is finally fulfilled.
Current demographic trends will change the demand for tourism and the available workforces, fundamentally impacting tourism structures, operations and development. Tourism and Demography investigates the how, why, when and what will occur, the consequences for the industry, and the strategies that need to be put in place to combat these changes.
Based on a major international survey of some of the world's biggest employers in the hospitality and tourism industries, this book provides a thorough examination of the problems and issues involved, and reveals that nearly all of the organizations are failing to address the complexities of HRM in the global marketplace. This edited collection features original contributions from some of the most important academics in this field, as well as case studies from North America, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Russia and South Africa. The book includes sections on employee resourcing, employee development and employee relations, which cover topics such as selection, labour turnover, staff training, multi-site management, employee commitment and legislation. Human Resource Management contains the most up-to-date research into these complex problems and is an excellent and useful resource for researchers, postgraduates and senior managers within the industry.
