Domestic Tourism in Asia
Many countries have a rich tradition of domestic travel and holidaying which not only predates but exceeds mass international travel. This is particularly the case in Asia where recent economic prosperity and trends in globalization have not merely spurred, but continue to shape traditions in domestic tourism. This book is the first to address specifically the continuities and changes in domestic tourism in Asia. It explores the ethos of domestic travel and holiday-making in order to understand the distinctive common strands that underlie conventional and contemporary tourism practices, against the local and global backdrop. A considerable range of countries is covered in the case studies, including those with patrimonial histories, namely China and India, the economically developed nation-state of Japan and the microstates of Taiwan, Singapore, Macao and Hong Kong, besides the coastal countries of Malaysia, Philippines, Laos and Vietnam, as well as the land-locked countries of Kyrgyzstan and Mongolia. The book presents some of the many interfaces of Asian cultural and natural heritages with tourism, while giving due considerations to today's political and economic realities.

These are interpreted from a perspective of the sociology and anthropology of development. Case study chapters are presented from Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Latin America and Oceania. The book provides essential reading for advanced students and researchers in tourism and development studies.

Malana Cream: Chauvinist Pigs & Third Wave Feminism
Feminism is still a misunderstood concept; many think it ends at sexual freedom for women. There are uncomfortable issues however - little girls need much more to aspire to than being an Item girl or a Cinderella or a Daddy's girl, men need not veer towards beards and over-sized vehicles and shoes to compensate for the intimidation, and chivalry need not be the biggest casualty of uber-feminism. But the entire debate has gone underground. Malana Cream is a brilliant street narrative that attempts to create a dialogue between chauvinism and feminism through a metaphorical voyage, as well as a physical one. Cruising on his motorcycle on the great Himalayan road along the Dhauladhar Range to Parvati Valley, chauvinist Ranveer Singh discovers liberalism at the hands of Rito, a third-wave feminist backpacker, as they ride to attend a cultural festival called Malana Cream, named after the high grade, exotic marijuana found in the valley. The result is two enthralling journeys - an external travelogue about the Himalayas, spirituality, hippies, backpacking, while the other, an internal dialogue about individual choice.
Tourism in Destination Communities
Annotation. As a result of the ongoing growth in the tourism industry, many destinations around the world are undergoing transformations. New destinations are being 'discovered' in regions previously ignored, as people search for regions that are yet unspoiled by the ravages of mass tourism. At the same time, traditional destinations are experiencing rapid environmental, socio-cultural and economic modifications. These changes have the most effect on the destination community - the location where tourists spend their time and money, and influence development or degradation of the local environment.Tourism in Destination Communities describes both the positive and negative effects of tourism on the destination community. The chapters are divided into three sections which address the relationship between tourism and the destination community, the various impacts of tourism on the destination community and the challenges and opportunities for destination communities. Each chapter contains brief case studies and empirical examples.

Treating Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders With Herbal Medicines
The utilization of herbal medicine to treat endocrine and metabolic disorders has garnered much attention within the past few decades. Specifically, the popularity of using dietary supplements for the management of chronic disorders has drastically increased, with a wide variety of these products available over the counter. They represent an attractive adjuvant to traditional therapy for their lower toxicity and their easy accessibility. The identification of such dietary compounds has prompted researchers to explore the vast array of their beneficial effects.
