The Sewer of the Amusement Industry
Is there anything good to say about this pub? It comes out 7 times per-year (what kind of frequency is that?) and openly has no editorial integrity by trading ad space for editorial. The articles are soft-hitting features, the ads are blown up so the advertisers feel like they are getting a bargain and the bulk of the content is made of up press releases cut and pasted directly from the advertisers. They say that over 35,000 people subscribe to the book when in reality they drop-ship that many each year...the actual number is more like 1000 subscribers. I have yet to find someone in the amusement industry that subscribes to this publication, most pick it up at a trade show, throw it away and never look again. Don't waste your money.

They're Rarely As Well-done As This.
This leading international trade publication focuses on the management of leisure facilities, attractions, entertainment and amusement centers as well as industry news, events and functions. TA&P is a full-color magazine containing cutting edge features that provide definitive coverage and analysis of various aspects of the exciting amusement business, including safety, thrill rides, arenas, stadiums, ampitheatres, caves, touring shows, theme parks, fairs, zoos, aquariums, live performances, coin-op vending, waterparks, and so much more. What you have here is a complete and thorough resource of accurate reliable information that regular readers can use now and also reference months later. You could go so far as to say that it's a whole world of fun about a totally "fun world"!
