商品簡介

Women and Travel: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives is a fascinating look at the behavior, motivations, experiences, and needs of women as tourists and travellers, drawing on both historic and contemporary eras. Surprisingly little research has explored key issues, experiences, and opportunities in the context of women’s travel. This revealing volume fills this gap, exploring the discourses, debates, and discussions about women, travel, and tourism.

With an international roster of contributors from diverse regions of the world, the book celebrates a variety of women’s voices. Khoo-Lattimore and Wilson deliberately sought to include nontraditional and non-Western perspectives on women’s travel, with inclusions of Asian solo female travelers; Islamic women travellers and the constraints placed on them; and women who cannot travel (or choose, for whatever reason, a ‘home holiday’).

This enlightening volume brings together scholars from the broad areas of tourism, hospitality, geography, and leisure studies to examine how and why women travel. The chapters bring light to perspectives from different countries, cultures, backgrounds, and religions, and utilize different methods, approaches and styles of presentation.

Women and Travel: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives will be of interest to academics and graduate students from a range of disciplines, including tourism, leisure studies, sociology, cultural geography, anthropology, feminist and gender studies, business, economics and management; as well as professionals working in the tourism industry, particularly those with an interest in niche markets and segmentation.

作者簡介

Catheryn Khoo-Lattimore holds a PhD in Consumer Behaviour from the University of Otago, New Zealand, and has worked in Malaysia, United States, and now Australia. She was a 2013/14 Fulbright Scholar with residency at the University of Florida and is now a senior lecturer in the Department of Tourism, Sport and Hotel Management at Griffith University, Queensland, Australia. Dr. Khoo-Lattimore’s current research interest is on tourist and guest behavior, with a passionate focus on women, families, and young children. She is also particularly interested in understanding these segments from an Asian perspective and how their travel experience and behaviors differ cross-culturally. She serves on the editorial boards of the Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Education, the Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Management, Tourism Review, and Anatolia. She is an executive committee member of The Council for Australasian Tourism and Hospitality Education (CAUTHE) and board member of the Asia Pacific Council on Hotel, Restaurant, and Institutional Education (APacCHRIE). She is also the founder and chair of Women Academics in Tourism (WAiT).

Erica Wilson, PhD, is Associate Professor, Deputy Head, and Director of Teaching and Learning in the School of Business and Tourism, Southern Cross University, Limsore, New South Wales, Australia. Her doctoral thesis (Griffith University) was an interpretive, qualitative exploration into the constraints faced by Australian solo women travelers. Erica also holds a postgraduate diploma in environmental studies (Adelaide University) and a first-class honours degree in tourism administration (James Cook University). Her scholarly publications and research interests focus on critical pedagogy and theory in tourism, gender and tourism, leisure constraints and negotiation, sustainable tourism in protected areas, and qualitative/ feminist methodologies. Erica currently sits on the Editorial Advisory Boards for Hospitality and Society, Journal of Tourism and Development, and the Annals of Leisure Research (where she was also Associate Editor and Book Reviews Editor from 2008-2015). Erica was a member of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Technical and Scientific and Advisory Committee from 2006-2015.
