Media Reviews
’Tourism is increasingly a strategic key factor for economic growth. With penetrating intellect and vision, Giaoutzi and Nijkamp examine the interconnections between tourism, ICT and regional development. All those seeking to enhance their understanding of this complex subject would do well to read this book.’ Professor Yoshiro Higano, University of Tsukuba, Japan ’Tourism and Regional Development is a tour de force explaining how ICT is amplifying travel demand and revolutionizing destination marketing, investment, and management, and in turn the behavior of the tourist. The book provides solid new information on trends, methods of analysis and current policy strategies used by regions to enhance the competitiveness of this sector and its destinations.’ Professor Roger R. Stough, NOVA Endowed Chair, Eminent Scholar, George Mason University, USA
