“Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled ‘This could change your life.’” –Helen Exley
Synopsis
Tourism is now the most important economic activity in the world, with scarcely any part of the globe unaffected. Tourist money powers resort developement, and, critics would argue, can corrupt and corrode traditional societies. The temptation is strong to provide tourists with what images they want to find, regardless of whether they are current or genuine. The Scots promotion of Scotland as a land of heather, the kilt and whisky confirms this: a dash of truth, a splash of history and a good deal of manufacture and manipulation.
