Tourism literature includes a plethora of books and conference and journal papers that address
various issues of tourism in different regions and subregions of the world. However, up to now there
has been a lack of a collection of contribution-based books with a regional and subregional focus.
In order to complement the existing tourism literature with new or emerging topics of particular
interest, it is the aim of the CABI Regional Tourism Series to offer a collection of books with com-
parative and individual case studies from at least eight regions and subregions of the world. These
books will come under the following titles, each of which focuses on some of the countries or country
clusters: Tourism in Western Europe; Tourism in Eastern Europe; Tourism in East and Southeast
Asia; Tourism in the Middle East; Tourism in Sub-Saharan Africa; Tourism in the Caribbean; Tourism
in Latin America; Tourism in Pacific Oceania.
