This book offers a practical guide for scenario planning to make sense of the future of tourism for practitioners, researchers and students.

This is an excellent and very timely book given the uncertainties facing tourism destinations over the next two decades. The volume’s futures-based perspective is key to understanding these challenges and planning for their potential impacts using a variety of tools, including scenario analysis. The importance of this book cannot be overstated at this time in our history.
