| Abstract, etc | 'This book offers a timely and much-needed discussion of the historical and geopolitical context of poverty in the developing world, along with valuable intersections with tourism and development. It is an important reading for students interested in pro-poor tourism as well as sustainable tourism, ecotourism, and tourism development in general.'- Tazim Jamal, Associate Professor, Texas A&M University'The numbers of people in the world suffering poverty should be a source of shame for all of us, that demands we think and act to reduce poverty. This book brings a multi-disciplinary approach to help students develop a political literacy about the real causes of poverty and what tourism can contribute to make the world a fairer place for all.'- Graham Miller, Professor of Sustainability in Business, University of Surrey'This an excellent introductory text to the study of Tourism and its effects on the socioeconomic and cultural environment of developing and emerging countries, within today's contemporary sustainability agenda....The final chapter in particular gives a clear analysis of where the sustainable and development tourism discourse is today, and analyses and describes, where required with diagrammatic illustrations, the likely trends of the future.'- Dr Ola Uduku, Reader in Architecture, Co-Director Urban Strategies and Development M.Sc. University of Edinburgh'The text provides a comprehensive introduction to poverty and tourism development in LDCs and opens up room for further interrogation, including over the accessibility of capital for the poor to start tourism-related enterprises in LDCs. The book is relevant for tourism students and provides the arguments and counter arguments, on the economic, cultural and social impacts it may have with respect to poverty.'- Geoffrey K.
