| Abstract
|
:
|
"The fully updated third edition of this highly successful and acclaimed text continues to offer a comprehensive synthesis of the key issues associated with the area of tourism, leisure and recreation. It provides a cohesive overview of the landmark studies that exist within tourism, leisure and recreation at a time of rapid growth in the subject area. The book offers the reader a series of chapters which not only explain how important tourism and leisure are in modern society, but also outline the key contributions made by geographers in the global growth of tourism and leisure research."

"While this third edition retains the successful format and structure of previous editions with a wide range of maps and plates, it is completely revised and redeveloped to accommodate new case studies, summary points and learning objectives for students. The global focus of the text is retained, with a greater emphasis on North America as outbound and destination areas, as well as the importance of less developed countries and the critical issues of inequality, exploitation, underdevelopment and globalisation as powerful forces affecting tourism and leisure."--Jacket.
