Reviews
Of the many books on tourism research methods, Smith's Practical Tourism Research stands apart. It meets the essential needs of a researcher, right from planning a project, designing a questionnaire to conduct interviews and finally preparing a research report. The book also provides necessary tips for report presentation. Some of the unique features of the book are: placing case studies in focus boxes that help understand the complexity of the problem. The book has a very useful chapter, Metrics of decision making besides development of scale and indices. The excellence of the book stays in the simplicity of language and lucid prose that a reader gets enlightened. Chapter after chapter the author makes an effort to integrate theory and practice. The second edition of this book is much improved and updated in content and format. A full new chapter on Netnography (internet based ethnography) has been introduced that shall help scholars gathering rich information. Practical Tourism Research is recommended to tourism graduate, researchers, planners, and consultant., "This book is 'must' for research in tourism - well illustrated with tables, figures and charts. Focus boxes greatly help the researcher, in fact, they work as lecture notes. The 2nd edition is appropriately updated and is seen in new clothes with two columns printing. The readers shall find it an interesting read. Tourism graduates, planners, consultants, resource managers and career researchers will find it very useful reference literature for their project performance." - Tourism Recreation Research

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
