Heritage and Tourism: In The Global Village (Heritage : Care-Preservation-Management) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Prisci Boniface خلاصه: A nation's heritage is one of the most potent forces for generating tourism: the Tower of London is the greatest 'visitor attraction' in Britain. But it is pushed into insignificance by comparison with the visitors travelling to Disneyland, Epcot and the other entertainment complexes in the USA; and it will be dwarfed by Euro-Disneyland east of Paris.

Case Studies in Ecotourism (Tourism) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: R. Buckley خلاصه: As a counterpart to the growing volume of more theoretical literature in ecotourism, this volume presents a global compilation and analysis of over 170 real-life case studies in ecotourism, selected after an extensive screening process. It includes ecotours on land and sea, ecolodges and resorts, private reserves and public parks. The case studies range from the worlds best models to test cases, small and large, unique to representative. Data has been drawn from independent audits by the author and others, and from published reports from

نویسندگان: David Weaver خلاصه: Sustainable Tourism comprehensively examines the theoretical and applied dimensions of contemporary sustainable tourism from a global perspective. Using international case studies and examples, it provides cutting edge coverage of the latest developments in the area, both theoretically and practically. It takes the reader through all aspects of sustainable tourism from the emergence of the paradigm to sustainability issues in all types of tourism and all components of the industry. Divided into 11 chapters it covers* ?Alternative tourism? (AT), or small-scale tourism and its associated pros and cons* Sustainable tourism within the conventional ?mass? tourism sector: the ?green consumer?, transportation, accommodation, attractions and tour operator considering issues and developments in quality control* Destination sustainability: issues of community empowerment and ideal sustainability models* Conclusions for the future of sustainable tourismThe wide variety of international case studies used include: backpacking in Australia and Spain, Volunteer tourism in the US, Six Continents and Marriott hotels, Disney World, the Grand Prix, the Grand Canyon, mountain gorilla parks in Uganda and many more.Specifically written for courses in the specific topic area of sustainable tourism, this textbook considers the needs of both students and lecturers as follows:* Ideal for a semester course (or a 42-hour course)* Global perspective throughout the chapters and in the breadth of illustrative boxed case studies;* Chapters exceptionally well-integrated through frequent cross-references* End-of-chapter questions that prompt deeper integrative thinking on the part of the reader.* Online resources for the lecturer, including PowerPoint presentations and multiple choice exercises * Global perspective throughout the chapters and includes industry as well as destinations on both a small and large scale dimension* Discusses sustainability issues in both alternative and mass tourism and associated strengths and weaknesses of each* User-friendly text ideal for a semester module and packed with learning tools for the student

Now in paperback it includes four colour photos as well as two brand new chapters on tourism in Scotland and Wales.It looks in detail at the following key areas: * The roots of post war tourism growth * Developments in transport and regulation * Developments in accommodation and visit attractions * Marketing developments and trends - the role of entrepreneurs * Tourism trends into the 21st centuryOffering a comprehensive evaluation of post war developemnts in the British tourism industry, British Tourism: The remarkable story of growth, acts as a single reference resource suitable for a wide ranging readership from students on tourism courses and practitioners in the travel and tourism industries * Now in paperback with colour photos, and two brand new chapters on tourism in Scotland and Wales* Offers comprehensive evaluation of post war developments in the British tourism industry * Acts as a single reference resource for students and academic researchers
Ikigai : the Japanese secret to a long and happy life - PDF
Ikigai : the Japanese secret to a long and happy life - PDF
نویسندگان: Héctor García خلاصه: According to the Japanese, everyone has an ikigai—a reason for living. And according to the residents of the Japanese village with the world’s longest-living people, finding it is the key to a happier and longer life. Having a strong sense of ikigai—where what you love, what you’re good at, what you can get paid for, and what the world needs all overlap—means that each day is infused with meaning. It’s the reason we get up in the morning. It’s also the reason many Japanese never really retire (in fact there’s no word in Japanese that means retire in the sense it does in English): They remain active and work at what they enjoy, because they’ve found a real purpose in life—the happiness of always being busy.
The Art of Dreaming - Epub + Converted PDF
The Art of Dreaming - Epub + Converted PDF
نویسندگان: Carlos Castaneda خلاصه: The Art of Dreaming describes the steps needed to master the control and consciousness of dreams. The Toltecs of Don Juan Matus' lineage believed that there are seven barriers to awareness, which they termed The Seven Gates of Dreaming. In The Art of Dreaming Castaneda describes extensively how a state called Total Awareness can be achieved by means of dreaming. According to Castaneda there are 7 Gates of Dreaming, or obstacles to awareness, which when overcome yield total awareness. Four of the Gates of Dreaming are discussed in The Art of Dreaming. What follows is not so much a technique in achieving lucidity, but rather the practical application of lucid dreaming. By acting a certain way while dreaming, one can cause psychosomatic changes in one's being, including an alternate way of dying.

نویسندگان: Carlos Castaneda Florinda Donner Taisha Abelar Armando Torres Eric Berne Arthur Janov Jiddu Krishnamurti خلاصه: The Toltec Way is undeniably a map to Freedom. The Mastery of Awareness is the modern-day version of an extremely ancient tradition. Although the seers of today are linked to that ancient tradition, they are seers of a new cycle and have a new focus. The essential character of the New Seers and the modern Seers of the New Era is that they are the Warriors of Total Freedom. They are such Masters of Awareness, Controlled Folly, and Intent, that they are not caught by death, 1 ike the rest of mortal Men, but choose the moment and the way of their departure from this world.
Fire Properties of Polymer Composite Materials - Original PDF
Fire Properties of Polymer Composite Materials - Original PDF
نویسندگان: A. P. Mouritz, A. G. Gibson (auth.) خلاصه: This book is the first to deal comprehensively with the important topic of the fire behaviour of polymer composite materials. Composites are used in a diverse range of applications, including land and marine transport, aerospace, the chemical industry, and most branches of civil engineering infrastructure. It is our belief that fire behaviour is the single most important factor limiting the wider use of composites in many of these areas. Our aim in producing this volume is therefore to stimulate the work that is needed to overcome this fundamental problem. The first step in such a journey is, of course, to summarise what is presently known, which is what we have attempted here. This book aims to be an authoritative reference source. The book covers all of the key issues on the behaviour of polymer composites in fire. This includes a description of the thermal degradation and combustion mechanisms of composites, including the thermal decomposition reactions, reaction rates, flammable volatiles and toxic gases of organic polymers and fibres. The fire reaction properties that define the flammability and fire hazard of polymer composites are described, including time-to-ignition, heat release rate, flame spread, smoke and gaseous combustion products. The fire resistive properties of composites are also described, including the key properties of burn-through rate and mechanical integrity during and after fire.
