Inhaltsangabe

The issues that tourism raises are of critical importance throughout the world: this book provides a geographical perspective upon them. The authors focus on both the production and consumption of tourism, and show that it is this interrelationship which holds the key to understanding the ways in which tourism shapes, and reshapes, human and physical environments. They analyze the key features of the tourism and leisure industries, and place them in the context of changing social, political and economic structures and behaviour. The argument is illustrated throughout by case studies, drawn from a wide range of countries, including both the developed and developing economies.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
