About the Book
Written in 1989, during a pivotal moment in the tourism industry, this book examines the evolution of tourism as it was experiencing dramatic growth. Increased mobility and affluence had led to more extravagant travel, while competition among industry players was intensifying. This comprehensive work by Peter Murphy offers a critical perspective on tourism development during this crucial stage.
Murphy presents a fresh approach to evaluating tourism, suggesting strategies for its continued growth and sustainability. Focusing on the dynamics of destination areas, the book explores the aspirations of these regions and emphasizes the importance of an ecological and community-centered approach to tourism planning. The recommended strategy encourages local initiative, benefits, and the development of tourism products that harmonize with the local environment and culture.
This insightful exploration of tourism development is an essential read for those involved in the industry and anyone interested in how tourism impacts and interacts with local communities and the natural world.
