Paperback. 256 pagina's. Net, strak en fris exemplaar. De succesvolle titel 'The Tourism Phenomenon; Past, Present, Future' is in 2008 opnieuw herzien. Deze Engelse editie van 'Het verschijnsel toerisme' is niet alleen inhoudelijk herzien en aangepast aan de actualiteit en het onderwijs van vandaag, ook uiterlijk heeft het boek een metamorfose ondergaan met een handzaam formaat. 'The Tourism Phenomenon' gaat in op het ontstaan van internationale en grensoverschrijdende toerisme, en richt zich op Europa. Het boek begint met een kort overzicht van de geschiedenis van het reizen. Vervolgens belanden we in het heden en zien we welke landen nu toeristische topbestemmingen zijn. In het derde hoofdstuk wordt aandacht besteed aan de beweegredenen van mensen om te reizen en aan de verschillende typen reizigers. Daarna geeft de auteur inzicht in de dynamische markt van het toerisme. Het hoofdstuk verschaft een analyse van de grote verscheidenheid aan toeristische markten en bespreekt de concurrentiepositie van bestemmingsgebieden op deze markten. Dat het groeiende aantal toeristen schade richt aan het milieu en de lokale bevolking in het bestemmingsgebied wordt onder andere in het hoofdstuk over duurzaam toerisme belicht. De belangrijkste vraag is: hoe kunnen we toerisme zo ontwikkelen dat de negatieve effecten voor het bestemmingsland (het fysieke milieu en zijn bewoners) minimaal zijn en de positieve effecten voor consument en ondernemer optimaal worden? Het boek wordt afgesloten met een toekomstvisie over de ontwikkeling van het toerisme. 777g. …

Straight spine. -- This is a study of tourism as a global phenomenon, with a particular focus on Europe, tracing its development from early forms of travel through to contemporary mass tourism and its projected future trajectories. The author approaches the subject from a broad sociocultural and economic perspective, situating tourism within wider processes of modernisation, globalisation and cultural exchange rather than treating it solely as an industry or commercial activity. Originally published in Dutch, the English edition was substantially revised and updated for contemporary educational use. It serves as a reliable and accessible text for students of tourism and hospitality, as well as a useful reference for practitioners seeking a structured overview of how the international tourism industry functions, how it has evolved, and where it may be headed. -- Contents: Introduction; 1.
