Tourism Impacts, Planning and Management is a unique text, which links these three crucial areas of tourism - impacts, planning and management. 'At a time when the need for effective planning and management of tourism is becoming ever more acute, this new edition explores critically the contemporary consequences of tourism development and means of addressing them. Comprehensive, easy to read, yet thought-provoking, with up-to-date case studies, detailed practical examples and challenging student exercises, it is essential reading for students of tourism and related subjects.' Richard Sharpley, Professor of Tourism & Development, University of Central Lancashire 'This book offers readers a strong understanding of tourism impacts, planning and management in an accessible manner. What makes it stand out is its willingness to look at some of the lesser-explored, but important, dark corners of tourism. In particular, the examination of sex, including child sex, tourism is to be applauded. The examination of overtourism in the book is also extremely timely.' Professor Neil Carr, University of Otago, New Zealand
