Tourism and Embodiment (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Palmer, Catherine; Andrews, Hazel

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The role of the body and ideas of embodiment have largely been neglected in anthropological studies of tourism. This book explores the notion of the tourist body and develops understanding of how touristic practice is embodied practice, not only for tourists; but also for those who work in tourism.
