All tourism takes place on land, but little attention is paid to protecting, planning, developing and managing that land. This work discusses what travellers' perceptions and expectations are of the places they visit, and how designers and planners can adapt to tourists' interests.
The third edition of this classic volume integrates the idea of balancing tourism with protection of the resources upon which it depends. The text stresses the role of the community, identifies potential pitfalls, and raises issues of developmental ethics. It includes topics such as environmental impact, sustainability, and ecotourism. Special emphasis is given to the growing need for business to implement environmental protection and ecological integrity as an essential part of economic development. The book is filled with many sketches, functional diagrams, and photographs.
