The globalization of tourism and hospitality

"The concept of the Tourism Area Life Cycle or TALC (the idea that there is a fixed pattern in the fortunes of tourist destinations: they're born, they grow, they mature, they stagnate, and then they die) first surfaced in 1980, in an obscure Canadian geography journal. Since then it has become the most written about topic in academic tourism, but only in journals. This book provides an easy to use guide to this most debated topic in academic tourism, with case study material and an international scope."--Jacket.
