Klappentext An Introduction to Visual Research Methods in Tourism is the first book to present, discuss and promote the use of a range of visual methods in tourism studies. It introduces methods ranging from the collection of secondary visual materials for the purposes of analysis (such as postcards, tourism brochures, and websites) and the creation of visuals in the context of primary research (such as photography, video and drawings), to the production of data through photo-elicitation techniques. Zusammenfassung Discusses the use of various visual methods, including still images (such as photographs, postcards, drawings) and moving images (such as video) within the context of tourism research. This book focuses on issues important for students, researchers and academics doing visual tourism research or those who are contemplating using these methods.
