“Combining community case studies and conceptual discussions, this volume presents a uniquely wide ranging set of interpretations of the highly relevant issues of safety and security in tourism. In an unstable world, this volume contributes significantly to our understanding of dealing with uncertainty in tourism, a problem of increasing concern and importance that needs exactly this sort of examination.”

“This valuable book addresses several critical factors for destination success – safety, security, and resilience. A rich explanation of these factors is provided through many fascinating case studies drawn from throughout the world. The emphasis is on solutions based on community initiatives, which is a refreshing approach not found in many texts.
