Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel and Tourism are wide and multifaceted systems whose complexity is reflected in the terminology employed to describe them or to operate them. Their communication language appears at times secretive; but there is no secrecy, in fact. Travel activities are bound to a vehicle distinguished by its velocity. Operating such activities demands, therefore, a communication system able to match such rapidity. It is required that all performers are fluent in travel terminology, including students, airlines staff, travel agents, and other service providers. The Dictionary for Travel and Tourism Activities has been designed to solve the need to learn, understand and succeed with the most common terms and expressions used by these so-called Industries. It is an educational tool for students and professionals, but is also an understanding means for travelers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE DICTIONARY OF HUMAN GEOGRAPHY ‘Even better than before, the Dictionary is an essential tool for all human geographers and over the years has provided an invaluable guide to the changing boundaries and content of the discipline. No-one can afford to be without this fifth edition.’ Linda McDowell, University of Oxford ‘From explanations of core concepts and central debates to lucid discussions of the theories driving contemporary research, this is the best conceptual map to the creative and critical thinking that characterises contemporary human geography. The fifth edition belongs on the bookshelf of all serious students.’ Gerard Toal, Virginia Tech ‘With an exceptional balance between breadth and depth, this is undoubtedly a timely and ground-breaking revision of the Dictionary. An outstanding accomplishment of the editors and contributors, and a comprehensive and essential reference for any student or scholar interested in human geography.’ Mei-Po Kwan, Ohio State University ‘I can’t imagine life without it. Definitive, detailed yet accessible: there’s still no single-volume reference work in the field to rival it.’ Noel Castree, University of Manchester The Dictionary of Human Geography represents the definitive guide to issues and ideas, methods and theories in human geography. Now in its fifth edition, this ground-breaking text has been comprehensively revised to reflect the changing nature and practice of human geography and its rapidly developing connections with other fields. The major entries not only describe the development of concepts, contributions and debates in human geography, but also advance them. Shorter, definitional entries allow quick reference and coverage of the wider subject area. Changes to the fifth edition include entries from many new contributors at the forefront of developments in the field, and over 300 key terms appearing for the first time. It features a new consolidated bibliography along with a detailed index and systematic cross-referencing of headwords. The Dictionary of Human Geography continues to be the one guidebook no student, instructor or researcher in the field can afford to be without.

Book excerpt: Turizmin ayrılmaz bir unsuru, bir ülkenin Seyahat ve Turizm endüstrisinin rekabet gücünü belirleyen kritik bir unsur olan, turistlerin emniyeti ve güvenliğidir. Bu nedenle, turistlerin emniyet ve güvenliği, dünyadaki tüm ülkeler için bir ulusal güvenlik meselesi olmalıdır. Turizm Polisinin sadece turistler için değil aynı zamanda turizm sektörü için de emniyet ve güvenliği sağlama, bu konuda onlara yardımcı olma ve koruma sağlama hususunda önemli olduğuna ve turizm polisinin destinasyanlar hakkında olumlu imaj oluşturmasına yardımcı olduğuna inanılmaktadır. Böylece, turizm polisliğine yapılan herhangi bir yatırımın, destinasyonların ve ülkelerin ekonomik geleceğine yatırım olacağı aşikardır. “Turizm Güvenliği İçin Turizm Polisi: Polis Teşkilatları İçin Bir Model Önerisi” adlı bu kitap, ülkeler/destinasyonlar açısından dünyanın en çok tercih edilen turizm destinasyonlarından biri olma hedefi ile turizm polisi sistemi ve turizmde emniyet ve güvenlik konularına dikkat çekmesi açısından önemlidir. Bu bağlamda bu kitap, turizm emniyeti ve güvenliğine genel bir bakış sunmakta ve farklı ülkelerdeki polis teşkilatları için bir turizm polisi modeli önermeye odaklanmaktadır. Son olarak, kitapta destinasyonlarda turizm polisinin geliştirilmesi ve iyileştirilmesi için bazı pratik öneriler öne sürülmüştür. Kitabın içeriğinin, turizm emniyeti ve güvenliği konularına daha fazla yoğunlaşan ülkeleri ve kanun koyucuları destekleyeceği ve destinasyonlara uygun turizm polisi sistemini ve turistlerin ve turizm endüstrisinin emniyet ve güvenliğini sağlamadaki etkisini daha fazla yoğunlaştırması umulmaktadır. “Herkes için Emin ve Güvenli Turizm” sloganıyla daha emniyetli ve güvenli bir turizm ortamı oluşturmak için farklı ülkelerdeki Ulusal / Yerel Yönetimler tarafından bu kitaptaki tavsiyelerin ciddi bir şekilde dikkate alınacağı ve kendi ülkelerinde turism polisi sistemi kurmada son derece faydalı olacağı içtenlikle ümit edilmektedir.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2009 in the subject Tourism - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, University of Applied Sciences Bremerhaven, language: English, abstract: Human behaviour is one of the most interesting topics to be studied, but also one of the most complex. But who would not be relieved if he would know the reason why humans sometimes behave as they do? Especially in the field of tourism, a domain of intense human interaction, where offering services is the core activity of most businesses, it would be quite favourable to predict how potential customers or business partners do react; or if the extensive marketing spending has the desired impact. Consequently, this work focuses on the topic of human motivation, particularly on the motivation of travelling behaviour, drawing attention to a field that is as diverse as the ways it can be approached. Tourism researchers usually refer to an established set of theories and models to describe motivated behaviour, of which Maslow’s ‘Hierarchy of Needs’ probably is the most renowned. But considering its year of publication, it is remarkable that there is no established contemporary approach to behavioural research. Accordingly, the objective of this work is to develop a theoretical model relating the variety of leisure travel elements to as few as possible underlying motivations, being responsible for thriving one of the biggest industrial sectors of the world. Research was carried out by undertaking in-depth interviews in the context of grounded theory methodologies, investigating the travel behaviour, experiences and motives of a small sample, detecting relations and dependencies, and drawing according conclusions. Based on the analysed data a theoretical model emerged, defining the motivation for any leisure travel activities as psychological escape, an instinctive reflex to a temporary dissatisfaction caused by a variety of influences.
