Ecotourism and Sustainable Development: Who Owns Paradise?
 The Basics: Author: Martha Honey URL: Find it at your local library. Date: 1999 Notes: At a Glance: This book brings up a lot of issues related to ecotourism. It presents an in-depth look at what ecotourism is, and its effects on just about everything. The author presents case studies to illustrate the reality of ecotourism, and draws on first-hand experience and interviews to critically examine the real-life implications, triumphs, and failures that accompany sustainable travel. Best for: Those seriously concerned with ecotourism. Researchers, politicians, students, scientists, global activists - anyone who wants to know the effects and implications of ecotourism. People who want to know more than just the fact that they are helping the environment. Standout Features: The case studies are very effective at highlighting some major issues that arise out of ecotourism, and the "scorecards" are an interesting and effective way of evaluating those case studies. Keep in Mind: The book was written in 1999 and the ecotourism industry has grown tremendously since then, so some of the trips and companies may be out of date. Suggested by: kzimm |
