Riassunto

Wine tourism is a rapidly growing field of industry and academic interest with changes in the consumer markets in recent years, showing an enormous interest in 'experiential' travel. Wine Tourism Around the World is therefore an invaluable text for both students and practitioners alike and provides:

* an international perspective on wine tourism and includes detailed examples from Australia, Canada, France, Greece, Hungary, New Zealand, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, UK and the USA
* detailed information on the growth and development of wine tourism from both supply, demand, marketing and management perspectives
Academic researchers and students in tourism and hospitality fields, as well as anyone connected with the wine industry, will find this book an essential guide to understanding the global impacts of wine tourism and the consequent economic, social and environmental impacts and opportunities.

Recensione:

The intended audience is 'people in the wine and tourism industries' as well as 'students of the grape'. It seeks to position itself as an invaluable text for both students & practitioners alike. It is written by 'people who are interested & involved in wine from both an academic & business perspective'..... These contributors are drawn from six countries, in addition to England. Hence this is a complex blend with a strong international flavour. Their chosen blend is very diverse & ought to contain something for everyone with an interest in this field. The book is clearly laid out & contains an interesting mixture of illustrations, figures, tables & other statistical data.

Its international credentials are obvious & it does provide a solid introduction to a diverse subject. The contributions are both serious & relevant. They cover both academic & practical aspects of the field. It is a work that deserves to be consumed whilst young because of its relevance to a rapidly growing market.
