’Tisdell’s collection provides a panoramic view of tourism economics as it existed up to about 1998. Economists as well as other social scientists, tourism managers, policymakers, entrepreneurs, consultants, and students will find the collection valuable . . . This two-volume set is unprecedented in tourism economics and, perhaps, in tourism studies . . . Tisdell has given substantial thought to the collection and ordering of the papers included. This thought is made manifest in superb introductory essays by Tisdell for each volume. Each is an exegesis for the writings - comparing, contrasting, analyzing, and synthesizing the divers view points of so many authors who, if laid end-to-end, could never reach a conclusion . . . the range of insights, examples, models, methods, and theories covered make this a ‘’must-by’’ for any tourism research library.’- Stephen Smith, Annals of Tourism Research ’To sum up the two volumes as a whole, there has clearly been much work involved in assembling this extensive compilation of articles on tourism economics.’- Harry Clarke, Economic Record’The literature on the economics of tourism has appeared in a wide variety of sources, and so it has been difficult for a researcher new to the area to quickly gain an overview of the field. Professor Tisdell has done an excellent job of bringing together the most important work in the area and putting it in context. This collection should be useful to both students and researchers. It may even stimulate me to do some more work in the area.’- Brian Copeland, University of British Columbia, Canada’. . . I think this to be first rate and it will make a substantial contribution to the literature. . .’- William Theobald, Purdue University, US’. . . I enjoyed reading the review and overview chapters. I am convinced that the collection of contributions will be most useful in teaching and classroom discussion. Many journals are (in vain) looking for comprehensive review articles of this kind.’- Josef A. Mazanec, Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration, Austria
