Sustainable tourism management

About this book

"There is increasing recognition of the importance of managing tourism so that it does not threaten the natural, social and cultural resource base on which it depends. This book is designed to give educators, students and practitioners an understanding of some of the major issues involved in sustainable tourism management, and provides case studies from different European countries examining the potential benefits and pitfalls of implementing sustainable tourism management." "This book has been produced by authors from ATLAS member universities in three European countries: the University of Deusto (Spain); Loughborough University (UK); Sheffield Hallam University (UK) and Tilburg University and the European Centre for Nature Conservation (The Netherlands). This project was supported by DGXXIII of the European Commission as part of their programme to support the development of sustainable tourism throughout Europe."--BOOK JACKET.
