New Book: The Economics of Tourism Destinations. Theory and Practice, 3th ed. Routledge.

Each chapter combines theory and practice and is integrated with international case studies. Combining macro and micro aspects of economics to the tourism destination, this is an invaluable resource for students learning about this subject and it is also aimed at tourism researchers and policy makers.
