Crynodeb:There has been intense debate in recent years over the role of tourism in developing nations, and whether the development of a tourist industry could create enough economic growth to transform the economic status of a particular region. Teller (Brock U., Canada) and Sharpley (U. of Lincoln) address these issues by beginning with the development processes themselves, and how a country with an unstable financial base can create a worthwhile experience for visitors. Written as a guide for those investigating the prospect of an emerging tourist industry, this book also focuses on the unexpected negative effects tourism may have on the surrounding communities.
