Recenzii

A must for those wanting to get to grips with the key tourism debates. This is an unconventional book that covers many of the big policy issues in tourism - climate change, mass tourism, community empowerment, etc. Experts explore these issues providing opinions, exploding myths and highlighting the value-laden nature of tourism. Noel Scott, The University of Queensland, AustraliaThrough this fascinating book Tej Vir Singh harnesses key debates that he has encouraged and fostered during his editorship of Tourism Recreation Research. It provides engaging and critical perspectives around fourteen contemporary tourism themes by eminent scholars in the field. Highly recommended.Professor John Tribe, University of Surrey, UK
