Review

This is a profound analysis of a subject of increasing importance in tourism. Fennell does an excellent job of interpreting and relating a vast body of theory on ethics to tourism, making this essential reading for any scholar seriously interested in the topic. He covers a wide range of disciplines and illustrates the problems raised with well-chosen examples of ethical issues and difficulties that exist in modern day tourism. * Richard Butler, Emeritus, University of Strathclyde, UK *For over a decade, Fennell's Tourism Ethics has been the foundational text for students and seasoned scholars of tourism alike seeking a point of entry into this complex subject matter. Conscientiously and brilliantly updated, this second edition is impressive in its scope and clarity. It will find a welcome place on textbook lists and reference shelves worldwide. * Kellee Caton, Thompson Rivers University, Canada *
