The study of tourism and indeed the tourism industry is changing
constantly. Contemporary Tourism: an international approach
presents a new and refreshing approach to the study of tourism,
considering issues such as the changing world order, destination
marketing, tourism ethics and pro-poor tourism. In particular, it
highlights the ongoing threats from terrorism and health scares
faced by the tourism industry today, and discusses the related
security and risk management strategies, illustrating the potential
implications for the patterns and flow of tourism in the future.
Divided into five sections, each chapter has a thorough learning
structure including chapter objectives, examples, discussion
points, self review questions, checklists and case studies. Cases
will be both thematic and destination-based and always

areas such as business and special interest tourism and the role of
technology.The five sections will cover: Contemporary Tourism
Systems; The Contemporary Tourist; The Contemporary Tourist
Destination; Tourism Futures; Teaching and Studying Contemporary
