He features useful examples, summaries and review questions in each chapter, for the benefit of his readers. I am very pleased to recommend this title to students and to aspiring practitioners."-Dr. Mark Anthony Camilleri, Associate Professor of Corporate Communication, University of Malta, Malta"The performance of a destination is often judged by the way it is managed and marketed. With globalisation, digitalisation and sophistication, destinations are evolving in an unpredictable tourism environment. As such, new knowledge and up-to-date strategies are needed to survive in such an uncertain condition. In response, Alastair’s third Edition on Marketing and Managing Tourism Destinations offers a comprehensive insight of updated management and marketing strategies to the tourism world. Enriched with 21 chapters, the book not only presents contemporary concepts from a renewed perspective, but also proposes refreshed practical examples from different parts of the world. The book adopts a unique approach; each chapter opens up with a ‘warming up’ and closes with a ‘summing up’ section. This allows readership to have a taste of the topic while aiding in a smooth digestion of the chapter. Marketing and Managing Tourism Destinations by Alastair Morrison is a valuable resource to the tourism community. The book will definitely delight readership in quest of knowledge on contemporary issues affecting the management and marketing of tourism destinations in the 21st century and onwards."-Dr. Vanessa GB Gowreesunkar, Associate Professor, Anant National University, India and Associate Editor, Emerald, International Journal of Tourism Cities"This book makes a very significant and valuable contribution to tourism destination marketing and management. Dr. Morrison introduces each important concept through a synthesis of the literature, diverse case studies, up-to-date data, and a variety of figures and tables. The whole book is very easy to follow and covers all the crucial aspects of this area. The real-world cases provide excellent resources for students to learn by doing and set the best examples for practitioners. It is definitely essential reading for students, instructors, scholars, and practitioners."-Dr. Ye (Sandy) Shen, Assistant Professor, Experience Industry Management Department, Cal Poly University, San Luis Obispo, California, US
