In this casebook, Jarvis, Goodwin, and Henslee provide a comprehensive introduction to the field of travel law. Combining leading cases and scholarly writings with numerous explanatory notes and thought-provoking questions, each chapter examines a different substantive topic: travel agents, common carriers (airlines, cruise ships, buses and trains), hotels, and attractions. The growing number of legal cases related to travel in the last decade indicates that this book will be of increased importance to attorneys interested in legal cases related to the travel, tourism, and hospitality industries. A teacher's manual is available. "[A] very well-written, dynamic, and entertaining tour of each of the major components of the travel marketing and delivery system. It provides much needed definition and structure to the teaching of Travel Law and should inspire U.S. law schools to offer Travel Law courses to their students. I only wish that I could have taken a course in Travel Law when I attended law school and that this extraordinary casebook had been available." -- International Travel Law Journal

Effective Engagement in Short-term Missions represents the single most ambitious effort to date to understand and improve upon patterns of ministry in STM. In six sections, the authors explore topics such as the links between STM and older patterns of long-term missions; engagement with people of other cultures; international partnerships; specialized ministries such as medical missions; legal and financial liabilities; and last but not least, the impact of STM on participants. The goal of this book is to improve the ways in which STM is carried out and to improve the understandings needed on the part of all who engage in the ministry. In short, this book attempts to provide a knowledge base for those who provide leadership within the short term missions movement. Youth pastors, mission pastors, lay leaders, college and seminary students, and missiologists will all find information that is helpful and relevant to their concerns.
