Abstract:

Derived from papers submitted at Parks Congress workshops, 1992. The aim is to show how tourism and protected areas can flourish alongside each other by guiding the development of tourism along lines which respect the limited capacity of many areas to absorb the pressure of visitors and their activities. The editor has drawn together a wealth of knowledge and experience and distilled it into essential guidance for protected areas planners, managers and tourists alike
