The
No-Nonsense Guide to..
Tourism
by
Pamela Nowicka
We all like to take a break, relax on a beach
or explore somewhere new. And we assume tourism
economically benefits the host too. But this
is often not the case - in the global south over
50 percent of a tourist's spending will leave
the country in which it is spent. And what about
the environmental impact of jetting off to exotic
destinations?
In this No-Nonsense Guide, Pamela Nowicka explores
the third biggest industry in the world (after
oil and narcotics). Taking the reader on a trip
through the early days of travel, up to the first
package tours and today's mass tourism, she argues
that we in the West could help more by travelling
less and being more discerning when we do travel.
This compelling and fascinating book will show
you the hidden impacts of tourism.
Format: 180 mm x 110 mm, 144 pages, paperback,
diagrams, charts and graphs used throughout to

key information.
