Recensione:

"A comprehensive and excellent textbook for undergraduate students in tourism. With its more thorough elaboration, new layout and web site references, the professional and pedagogical value of the third edition is considerably increased."
Ragnar Prestholdt, Hogskolen I Telemark, Norway

"With updated material and sources, enhanced pedagogical learning methods and a new, appealing appearance, this third edition of the Cooper et al. book is a very welcomed improvement on the successful second one; an essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of tourism and for all those seeking a textbook with a thought-provoking treatment of the sector."
Andreas Papatheodorou, Surrey University, UK

"Tourism: Principles and Practice third edition is an informative and comprehensive introductory tourism text. It balances sound theoretical underpinning in an attractive and bright eye-catching format. There is a mix of self-check questions, essay questions and case studies that build on content and will assist students to understand the subject."
Deborah Edwards, University of Western Sydney, Australia

"As the business of tourism becomes more and more competitive, so to does the teaching of tourism. Sourcing books that not only teach students the fundamental principles of how the whole tourism system operates and are able to generate deeper thinking of critical issues, but ones that also manage to capture their imaginations is difficult. This third edition of Tourism: Principles and Practice provides a competitive advantage to tourism academics by meeting these requirements. Well researched, a clean layout, interesting case studies from around the world and the good use of colour in this book will ensure its popularity."
Martin Fluker, Victoria University, Australia
