Review Quotes: I have asked the librarian to buy some copies, since it will be suggested for students in Tourism and Constructed Identities, and also for the Literature Exam in Tourism Geography.
This is a classical book, and the rivisitation of the "gazing" concept to embed staging and performing, plus the tourist photography and visual analysis, is very relevant to explain the changing tourisms and behaviours. More and more Master theses are addressing issues through these concepts. These are also available through various journal articles, and that is why it is sufficient to have a librarian purchase.--Dr Paola Minoia "drupal" (10/10/2012 12:00:00 AM)
