Why didn't I reply to that email?
WARNING ABOUT THIS BOOK: IF YOU DON'T WANT TO CRY, DON'T READ! It had been three days since she received that email. Three days in which she struggled between responding and pretending to ignore it.

I will never know."

Tourism and Violence
Exploring the connection between tourism and violence, this book draws on a range of disciplinary approaches, including social anthropology, cultural geography, sociology, and tourism studies.

This unique book paves the way for future research that will probe further the intersections between violence and tourism.
