Description

The Geography of Travel and Tourism provides a comprehensive examination of the basic principles underlying the geography of tourist demand, supply and transportation, together with a broad survey of world tourism generating and destination regions.


This second edition has been fully revised and updated to take account of major changes in the tourism industry since the book was first published. These include: the changing political map of the world, the 'greening' of tourism, the growth in long-haul travel, and the increased number of tourism courses available.
