Tourism as an activity is increasingly being criticised for its exploitative and extractive industrial approaches to business. Yet, it has the power to transform and to regenerate societies, cultures and the environment. The desire to explore the world around us is deeply embedded in many people’s psyche, but it comes at a cost to the environment and often to the residents of the visited communities. Much of tourism education has been closely linked to preparing students for future professional practice, but the challenges and opportunities linked to its consumption require that its future leaders must exhibit very different values and understandings to tackle ever more complex and wicked problems from which tourism cannot dissociate itself. This compilation of values-based learning experiences can be adapted to suit the needs and disposition of individual instructors and aims not only to engage students in the subject matter but also deepen their understanding of its complexity and interconnectivity and help them become global citizens that lead lives of consequence.

This book challenges the existing histories and explanations for the growth of the anti-nuclear power movement in the United Kingdom from 1955 to 1979. Arguing that opposition to nuclear power emerged in the 1970s because of the concerns of a minority of people about the dangers of atomic energy, based on the ecological messages contained in bestselling science fiction novels from the late 1940s to mid 1960s. Showing how a minority of the 1960s underground press blended old conservation ideas with counterculture styles to create new radical groups such as Friends of the Earth, this analysis also seeks to answer questions such as Why an anti-nuclear power movement instead of an anti-coal or anti-asbestos movement? What was it about nuclear power that generated such opposition its environmental impact, its cost, its prospects or its symbolism? and Could wind power in the 21st century face the same forces that opposed nuclear power 30 years ago?

"British society and culture from the late 1960s until the late 1980s was in a state of ferment and transition. In the early 1970s, the Arts Council of Great Britain began to work with photographers to document these changing times in black and white, while the British Council took the adventurous decision to collect the new colour photography of the social scene at the beginning of the 1980s." "Written by David Alan Mellor - an art historian and a specialist in the history of photography - and addressing themes of social realism, de-industrialisation and political criticism, No Such Thing As Society draws upon photographs from the British Council and the Arts Council Collection to give a radically new picture of these two turbulent decades."--BOOK JACKET.

From its title, which runs to 101 words in full, to its wordless concrete poems; from its World Cup fixture list to its transformations of four-letter words, 'We needed coffee but...' is audacious, mischievous, even outrageous. As in his award-winning first collection The Book of Matthew, the poet attends precisely to each detail: the rhythms are musical but unexpected; the brightness control on imagery is turned up high. New in this book is the emphasis on collaboration. Some of this work began in text pieces for art exhibitions or as song-cycle lyrics. Other poems respond to the influences of Gertrude Stein, Raymond Queneau, Inger Christensen, dom silvester houedard, Yoko Ono and Gyorgy Ligeti. Matthew Welton turns rigorous control into a dancing display of wit: we become his collaborators in the shared delight that inventive poetry can contrive.
