Full Description
"Tourism Impacts, Planning and Management" is a unique text, which links these three key areas of tourism: impacts, planning and management. Tourism impacts are multi-faceted and therefore are difficult to plan for and manage. This book looks at all the key players involved - be they tourists, host communities or industry members - and considers a number of approaches and techniques for managing tourism successfully. Divided into four parts, this text discusses: the growth, development and impacts of tourism; tourism planning and management: concepts, issues and key players; tools and techniques in tourism planning and management: education, regulation and information technology; and, the future of tourism planning and management: issues of sustainability and the future. Up-to-date, international case studies are used, for example the impacts of 9/11 and terrorism in Bali, to illustrate and provide a real-life context for the theories discussed. Exercises are also included to consolidate learning. The book links impacts, planning and management in tourism, and offers global coverage and perspective with cases and examples from the UK, Australia and USA.
It takes an applied approach, using international case studies to explain and illustrate the theories discussed.
