商品簡介
Sustainable tourism is not a static target, but a dynamic process of change, a transition. This book considers how monitoring using indicators can assist tourism to make such a sustainability transition. It encourages the reader to view tourism from a broad, interdisciplinary perspective and draws on material from a wide range of sources including ecology, global change and the new and emerging field of sustainability science. The book explains why monitoring is important for different groups of stakeholders: public and private sector, NGOs and communities. It also puts particular emphasis on indicator use and implementation. With this comfortable mix of theory, technique and practice the book will appeal to both students of sustainability and tourism as well as industry practitioners.
