Description
"The Geography of Tourism and Recreation presents a comprehensive introduction to tourism, leisure and recreation and to the relationships between them. Illustrated throughout, this text includes a wealth of international case studies spanning Europe, North America, Australasia and Asia. Each chapter highlights the methods of analysis used by geographers to analyse recreation and tourism, and highlights the similarities and differences between the way recreation and tourism is analysed. Recent perspectives developed in human geography are introduced (e.g. gender studies and post-modernism)."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
