“This book is a ‘must have’ for all students, researchers and teachers of tourism… The breadth of coverage and the contemporary focus ensure that researchers will use this book as a reference source for many years to come. It clarifies many of the methodological and definitional difficulties in the field… and at well over 600 pages, this book represents exceptional value.” Chris Cooper, University of Queensland
“Given its substantive themes, this Companion will satisfy a broad readership in tourism studies from advanced undergraduate level onwards, and is particularly relevant to geographers with different interests. In addition, the substantive themes and contributions cover typically staple parts of tourism studies and it is therefore a good general reference for many teaching courses and modules.” Reference Reviews
“A companion to tourism is a very welcome and useful addition to an expanding but still largely fragmented literature … reviews are generally of a high standard, well-written and insightful … Graduate students and specialized researchers will find the individual reviews invaluable.” Progress in Human Geography
