Munshi Premchand is the greatest figure in twentieth-century Hindi literature and Nirmala is one of his most well-known novels. Apart from being acknowledged as a classic in Hindi literature, it is a milestone in the development of Premchand''s creative genius. While it has been translated into numerous Indian and European languages, David Rubin''s is the first English translation. Set in the 1920s, Premchand''s keen insights into complex social, familial, and gender dynamics remain relevant today. Nirmala is the story of a woman whose only sin is her failure to find a husband who would accept her without a dowry. Married to a widower with children as old as herself, Premchand''s heroic call for social equality shines through on every page of this fascinating novel.

The purpose of this quantitative study is to test the validity of a behavioral theory, value-belief-norm theory (Stern, 2000), in the context of environmental hotel management. The lack of theoretical consideration in previous studies on environmental attitudes of hotel/resort managers warrants an investigation of a theory with the potential to better explain behaviors that support the goals of environment management systems. The goal of this research was to document the values, beliefs, personal norms, and environmental management support behaviors of managers in a hospitality setting. Data were collected from a sample of hotel and resort managers in the Phoenix metropolitan area by using a survey of well-documented items from previous research on the theory. Results suggest the value-belief-norm theory is successful in explaining environmental management support behaviors. Implications for practitioners as well as researchers are discussed.
