Epilogue. 330 $aQuality of life (QOL) research in tourism has gained much momentum over the last two decades. Academics working in this area research issues related to tourists and host communities. Practitioners are becoming increasingly interested in understanding the science that allows them to develop better marketing and managerial programs designed to enhance the quality of life of tourists. Tourism bureaus and government agencies are increasingly interested in issues of sustainable tourism, specifically in understanding and measuring the impact of tourism on the quality of life of the residents of the host communities. This handbook covers all relevant topics and is divided into two parts: research relating to travelers/tourists, and research relating to the residents of host communities. It is the only state-of-the-art reference book in its field and will prove invaluable to academics interested in QOL research, as well as tourism practitioners interested in applying the science of QOL in the tourism industry. 410 0$aInternational Handbooks of Quality-of-Life,$x2468-7227 606 $aQuality of life 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aEconomic geography 606 $aCultural heritage 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpatial economics 606 $aQuality of Life Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X23000 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aEconomic Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J12000 606 $aCultural Heritage$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/419000 606 $aRegional/Spatial Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000 615 0$aQuality of life. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aEconomic geography. 615 0$aCultural heritage. 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpatial economics. 615 14$aQuality of Life Research. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aEconomic Geography. 615 24$aCultural Heritage. 615 24$aRegional/Spatial Science. 676 $a306.4/819 702 $aUysal$b Muzaffer$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPerdue$b Richard$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSirgy$b M.
