Many contributors are from the Himalaya region, or have worked there extensively, lending strength through native and insider perspectives.This work will be useful for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, research and teaching scholars, policy makers, practitioners, and anyone interested in the Himalaya and their distinctive tourism and development-related potential and challenges.
