SUMMARY
Summary Worldwide Destinations: The Geography of Travel and Tourism is a unique text that explores tourism demand, supply, organisation and resources for a comprehensive range of destinations worldwide. The seventh edition is brought up to date with features such as: An exploration of current issues such as climate change, sustainability, mobilities, emerging markets, demographic changes and the social impacts of tourism. New and updated case studies throughout. More emphasis on emerging Asian countries, particularly China, Japan, South Korea and India. Improved full colour presentation, packed with useful learning resources such as location maps, discussion questions and assignments to aid understanding. Online resources for lecturers and students including: multiple choice questions per chapter, review questions, power points, web links and video links. The first part of the book comprises thematic chapters which detail the geographic knowledge and principles required to analyse the tourism appeal of destinations. The subsequent division of the book into regional chapters enables the student to carry out a systematic analysis of a particular destination, by providing insights on cultural characteristics as well as information on specific places.
