This book is aimed primarily at undergraduate students and has been written
in such a way that early chapters present largely factual material and later ones
discuss and analyse theories, as well as considering critical concepts and issues.
It uses a large number of case studies, at different scales, focusing on locations
from many areas of the world, including the UK, Spain, France, Italy, the USA,
Australia, New Zealand, Africa, Asia and Antarctica.
The book is divided into four sections.
■ Introduction to the Geography of Tourism
■ Impacts of Tourism
■ Issues in Tourism
■ Planning and Managing Tourism
The first section is concerned with the rationale for the geographical study of
tourism, the key motivations for tourism and the resources for tourism. A
whole chapter of this first section is devoted to an understanding of weather
and climate. Weather and climate can be considered as resources for tourism,
but are more important than this, being the context in which so much tourism
takes place. Without an understanding of the nature and causes of variations in
climate globally, it will be very difficult to understand how and why climate is
changing today, and the issue of climate change is discussed in detail in the third
section of the book. However, the final chapter of the first section is concerned
with the nature of tourism destinations, as it is here that impacts and issues are
particularly significant and can be readily observed and researched. This chapter
additionally focuses on the image of destinations, as this can be a major factor in
the long term sustainability of tourism locations. The second section of the book
considers tourism impacts and presents separate chapters focusing respectively
on environmental, socio-cultural and economic impacts. It also shows how these
impacts, in reality, are frequently multifaceted, and this section also sets tourism
in a wider socio-economic context. The third section of the book discusses and
critically evaluates major issues facing tourism, but where, in some cases, tour-
ism is also a significant contributor to these issues. Global development, climate
change and crises and disasters are the topics discussed at length, with each the
focus of a separate chapter. The fourth chapter in this section investigates the
relationship between the aims of conserving landscape, and yet also allowing
recreation and tourism uses, through a discussion of protected areas. The need to
manage tourism is the major concern of two of the chapters in the fourth section
of the book, one of which considers the nature of tourism planning and manage-
ment and the other is focused on an evaluation of concepts of sustainability and
sustainable tourism. The final chapter of the book presents for critical analysis a
number of possible scenarios for the future direction of tourism.
