.The Tourist Gaze (Published in association with Theory, Culture & Society)
City Travel Guides > Books > Tourism and Leisure Studies
by: John Urry

January 10, 2002
I read Urry's tourist gaze a couple of years ago when I first started studying tourism. His ideas offered a frame work that many tourism researchers refer to. It was very exciting for me then.

Since I first read the first edition, I have also read many criticisms against his thoughts. Urry acknowledges these criticisms but he still largely ignores these charges in this new book. That is puzzling to me. So, in the second edition of his "classic", Urry revises or more accurately, merely tinkers with his original tourist gaze ideas.

Tourism research today has moved towards tourism experiences. Urry seems to be stucked with his visual gazes. I therefore wonder why one should buy his second edition even though his examples ... Read More:

.Patisserie
City Travel Guides > Books > Tourism and Leisure Studies
by: Leonard J Hanneman

October 03, 2005
If you're a professional, a student or an experienced amateur then this will be your bible.
Everything is covered here and is presented superbly. You get the recipe, the yield and a nice little picture showing what its supposed to look like. What more could you want?
Another great addition is the run down of all your raw materials and the pros and cons of each (which earns you many brownie points as a student). There is also a lot of stuff about various tools of the trade but as most of us know, you buy said gizmo, use it once and then it finds its niche on a shelf somewhere.
The one thing you must remember though is that this is a book for professionals and if you are someone who dabbles in the kitchen at home you may be better ... Read More:
