Contributors represent a wide range of countries, and disciplines that include biology, political science, and natural resources as well as tourism. Drawing largely from case studies, they investigate whether the increasingly popular low-environmental-impact version of tourism can actually have adverse ecological impacts on places and people visited; on the land, water, and air traversed; and on the animals and plants viewed. Among the topics are impacts of tourism-related in-migration in the Greater Yellowstone Region (Montana), recreational power-boating on freshwater ecosystems, managing impacts of camping, the microalgal beds in the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, and hikers in Russia's Kavkazsky State Biosphere Reserve.
