  The growth of tourism, with its prospect of economic development and its threat of environmental, cultural and social problems, may be a mixed blessing for less developed countries, but there is little doubt that for many it will form a significant component of their future economies. This volume provides a detailed analysis of the costs and benefits of tourism in a range of large and small nations, with particular reference to social issues.
