| Abstract
|
:
|
"Critical Issues in Ecotourism" sweeps aside the rhetoric associated with ecotourism in an attempt to highlight the complex issues associated with this form of tourism development. Drawing upon emerging insights provided by pre-eminent scholars in the field, it identifies and comprehensively addresses the critical issues and complex challenges associated with contemporary ecotourism development. It provides the reader with the following: a critical, direct and hard hitting analysis of the real issues that apply to the field of ecotourism; contributions from prominent international scholars; dissemination of the scholarly works addressing this field; and a collection of works by outstanding international scholars. "Critical Issues in Ecotourism" highlights the complexities of ecotourism development and addresses the urgency of understanding and responding to the critical issues associated with a complex tourism phenomenon. -- From publisher's description.
