It examines the issue from a deep conceptual foundation and then translates this knowledge into a range of practical applications that are suitable for practitioners, students and the academic community. Written by a true global expert with many years of international experience, Museum and Heritage Tourism: Theory, Practice & People is a must-have resource."
