It brings together work and ideas from a diverse array of researchers from around the world and examines the affects and effects of diverse sexual encounters in tourism, romance tourism, sex tourism and sexual exploitation in tourism – including the sexual exploitation of children in travel and tourism, and sexual harassment. Sex in tourism has arguably been an understudied area of research relative to the central roles that sex plays within tourism experiences. This volume explores the complexity and nuanced nature of sex in tourism in more detail. It will be of interest to students and researchers of tourism impacts, tourist behaviour, hospitality management, destination management and development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeil Carr and Liza Berdychevsky deserve all accolades for editing a book that focuses on the nexus between sex and tourism, openly illuminating its light and dark sides. The readers of this thought-provoking book will be exposed to the intricate and profound ties between sex and tourism affecting individuals, communities, societies, and the tourism industry. * Yaniv Poria, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel *\u003cbr\u003eThis book provides a contemporary collection of the latest ideas about sex in tourism. It’s refreshing to see the contributions from African scholars, who give some unique insights on this topic that both add to and complement our knowledge of sex in relation to tourism. The book will be a useful resource for graduate classes and by researchers in a range of different disciplines. * Heather J. Gibson, University of Florida, USA *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs with all the best edited books, the big picture is here – Carr and Berdychevsky succeed in reducing what is irreducible to a comprehensible conceptual pattern – but so is the telling empirical detail and the required moral sensitivity, which brings us up close to the otherworldliness of sex in tourism.\u003c\/p\u003e * Tony Blackshaw, Sheffield Hallam University, UK *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edited book presents a balanced view of sex in tourism, including its various merits and faults. The book serves as an ideal reference for researchers, students, practitioners, and general readers interested in the topic.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Jun Wen, Edith Cowan University, Australia * International Journal of the Sociology of Leisure *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eFigures and Tables\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Contributors\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 1.
