Editors Wearing (management, U. Technology Sydney, Australia) and McGehee (hospitality & tourism management, Virginia Tech) offer this overview of the phenomenon of volunteer tourism from personal, sociological, and economic perspectives. The volume discusses the growth of volunteer tourism in particular out of the group of alternative tourism activities, the relationship between travelers and host communities, travelers' motives for volunteering, and issues of altruism and commodification. Chapters feature a relaxed academic style and structure, and often mention specific organizations as well as generalized features of volunteer tourists and their sought experiences.
