Reviews

The book is nicely edited, informative, and its chapters are of a good length with numerous nice color figures ... . It is an important book that is the product of the first attempt to produce a strong and balanced overview of the current state of volcano tourism research. I would say that the book reaches this goal, and I recommend the book to anyone who wishes to work on volcanic geoheritage, volcano tourism, or even in volcano geoconservation projects. (Karoly Nemeth, Bulletin of Volcanology, Vol. 78, 2016) As the title implies, this book, part of the 'Geoheritage, Geoparks and Geotourism' series, explores the relationship between volcanic landscapes and their role in volcano-based geotourism. ... All discussions are well referenced and supported by excellent color photographs, geologic maps, graphs, tables, and charts. ... The overall value of this book is its comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of the international volcano tourism sector. ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. All levels/libraries. (J. B. Huffman, Choice, Vol. 52 (11), July, 2015)
