Book excerpt: Transport for Tourism offers a novel and stimulating assessment of the effects of tourist travel and the challenges it poses for transport planners, providers and policy-makers in the 1990s. Unique in addressing the relationship between transport and tourism at an introductory level, the book covers such key topics as the role of government policy, demand and supply relationships, quality control systems, environmental impact assessment, and health and sustainable transport systems. These issues are further explored and illustrated through case studies on transport in Bermuda, Singapore Airways, British Airways, the Channel Tunnel, and transport systems in Japan. The approach throughout is interdisciplinary, drawing on economics, geography and marketing to provide a comprehensive and yet focused picture of a complex topic. Transport for Tourism will be a vital learning tool for students of tourism and transport options, both at undergraduate and diploma level.
