The innovation of the book “Routledge Handbook of Trends and Issues in Global Tourism Supply and Demand”, lies in the proposed classification scheme: i.e. in the acceptance that “not all tourism markets are the same and that they need special attention in relation to trends and issues”, thereby avoiding “laundry list” type of approaches.

The book defines and provides a systematic classification scheme for sustainable development trends and issues in the public and private sectors reviewing them in four thematic areas on tourism, such as: Sustainability / Planning and Development / Management / Technology.

The book includes 16 chapters and case studies of cutting-edge research (macro, meso and micro) on the latest technological developments and advances, that are revolutionizing the wine tourism sector and transforming the way wine tourism is designed and deliver wine tourism experiences in various wine regions worldwide including Portugal, Greece, Australia, Canada and France.

Smart Cities and Tourism: The co-creation of experiences, challenges and opportunities provides new knowledge of current issues, opportunities and concepts for the next generation of urban evolution.

The book, by Roya Rahimi, Babak Taheri, and Dimitrios Buhalis, is an essential volume for anyone researching the sharing economy and wishing to learn more about and delve into the impact it has had and will have on the tourism industry and the wider tourism economy.
