"...in spite of this ‘topsy-turvy’ time we live in, I found much of
this book highly thought provoking, timely and rewarding.
...primarily written for upper-level and graduate students with a
particular interest in this specialist area. It will also be useful
to researchers and practitioners in the field of tourism,
hospitality, food studies and rural regional development."
