Reviews

David Fennell's finished manuscript cuts new ground ... The text is well written, in an accessible style and there are many useful syntheses which will be very useful to students in structuring the various approaches to ecotourism programming. --Dr. Erlet Cater, University of Reading, UK<br>


For all interested or involved in the practical delivery of ecotourism this book is a must. This text is extremely well organized and structured in a way that will appeal to many undergraduates. Overall, the book is a gem for anyone wanting a broad overview of the themes involved in ecotourism and especially program planning for it. The book is best suited as a text for an introductory ecotourism class where key issues need to be raised but should be supplemented with further readings. The book presents a comprehensive approach to ecotourism programming, is clearly structured and based on a thorough understanding of the subject. The book is well written in an accessible style and the text is well supported with clear diagrams and figures. This book is highly recommended to students and practitioners in the fields of ecotourism, tourism, recreation, leisure studies, geography and planning. --Dr. Rosemary Black -The book presents a comprehensive approach to ecotourism programming, is clearly structured and based on a thorough understanding of the subject.
