"The significance of tourism in less developed countries continues to be a matter of contention as many nations seek to expand their industries in pursuit of economic rewards, but become vulnerable to adverse impacts while doing so. The subject is one of relevance to all students of tourism and merits attention in order to raise awareness and improve understanding of tourism's place in contemporary society and the development process. Here, the Editor has assembled a varied and thought-provoking selection of papers to illustrate some of the key issues in the debate ... It is especially illuminating to discover more about locations which usually receive less attention as well as the better documented examples of the Caribbean and Asia Pacific. ... [T]he publication is a timely contribution to the debate about the relationship between tourism and development and a very useful addition to the literature."--Joan Henderson, Nanyang Business School, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore "The significance of tourism in less developed countries continues to be a matter of contention as many nations seek to expand their industries in pursuit of economic rewards, but become vulnerable to adverse impacts while doing so.
