Description

Tourism is often viewed as a phenomenon that brings out the worst in human nature.

Self-interest, overuse of resources, injustice and cultural erosion are but a few examples.

This book explores the contrasting view that tourism can be a pathway to hope and happiness.

The chapters address areas including wellbeing, positive psychology, hopeful tourism, mindfulness, peace, responsible tourism and spirituality.

The volume examines the role of tourism in preserving natural wonders and architectural masterpieces, bringing out the best in tourists and locals and adding economic value if planned, developed and managed sustainably.

It will be a useful resource for students and researchers in tourism, psychology and philosophy.
