Film-induced tourism has the potential to revitalise flagging regional/rural communities and increase tourism to urban centres, however it carries with it its own unique problems. This publication explores such elements, delving into the disciplines of sociology and psychology, along with the fields of destination marketing, community development and strategic planning.

This is a richly detailed and thoroughly interesting analysis of the complex interconnections between tourism, the film industry and filmic images. I found it really worth reading and think it will develop new research in these fascinating areas.
