Review
"...this is the best book on Third-World tourism produced thus far." - Dennis Judd, Professor of Political Science, University of Illinois - Chicago, and co-editor of The Tourist City
'Gladstone excels in his style of writings often touching dramatic heights. He creates tourism scenarios and fills them with native hue, noise and colour that the desination comes alive in the imagination of the reader... The strength of the book lies in its faithful account of the places and people in the Third World. It is ably documented with useful references for students of sociology of tourism, geography and anthropology of tourism. Planners and resource managers will also benefit from the innovative ideas introduced in the book for achieving much sought-after sustainibility.' Tourism Recreation Research, Vol 32(2), 2007
