Despite the formidable growth of urban tourism there has been
little of the critical engagement that one would expect from the
social sciences: the rich potential of contemporary social science
for urban tourism has yet to be realized. Martin Selby's textbook
makes available to practitioners and students seeking to understand
the phenomenon of tourism in towns and cities the methods and
concepts that are currently enhancing and transforming our
understanding of society in other areas of the social sciences.
With an emphasis on image, culture and experience, the author draws
upon the "cultural turn" to explains the human aspects of the urban
tourism phenomenon. The discussions emphasize the significance of
urban tourism within debates upon the contemporary city,
postmodernity and the pursuit of social science. Clearly written,
with case studies and further reading, this book should be welcomed
by students and lecturers in geography, tourism, planning and
sociology.
