What is the thruth behind the paradise beaches in travel brocures? What can a developing country do when one exotic holiday seems much like another, when political instability or environmental disaster can deter tourist for years, when the tourism industry slips into foreign control?
Tourism and Development in the Third World assess the diverse social, economic, and environmental factors which impact on the Third World. Illustrating the analysis with cases which range across tourism in game parks, sex tours and the after-efects of political turmoil, the book explores ways of managing tourism as a resource and evaluates its long-term contribution towards national development.

Industry Reviews

." . . thorough up-to-date case studies." -"Checklist "International tourism is one of the most understudied topics in Third World literature: to have an entire book devoted to its trends and influences is a real treat. Lea focuses upon tourism's place in development processes, linking economic, social and cultural impacts with the demands tourism generates in developing nations. Charts, maps, and descriptions of events in particular nations make this a lively discussion of the full impact tourism has in the Third World." -"Book Watch
