Sharp, engaging, and relevant this book presents a framework for understanding tourism which is subject-centered, dynamic, and capable of dealing with the complexity of contemporary tourist cultures. Tourism is examined through a consideration of the spaces and selves of travel, exploring the cultures of meaning, mobilities, and engagement that frame and define the tourist experience and traveler identities. This book draws on the explanatory traditions of sociology, human geography, and tourism studies to provide useful insights into the experiential and the lived dimensions of tourism and travel 4 Text Unmediated Volume lcc BK rizal 2015-04-07 23:18:23 rizal 2015-04-07 23:18:23 4442 4424 4424 0 0 ddc 0 0 HED HED HED 2025-12-21 338.4791 W37t HED3869 2026-06-02 00:00:00 2025-12-21 BK
