'British Tourism: A Remarkable Story of Growth' identifies the most significant of these changes and places them in an historical context highlighting four distinctive eras. It looks in detail at the following key areas: * The roots of post war tourism growth * Developments in transport and regulation * Developments in accommodation and visit attractions * Marketing developments and trends - the role of entrepreneurs * Tourism trends into the 21st century

Download or read book Evaluation in English Tourism Texts on Chinese British and American Websites written by KANG NING and published by American Academic Press. This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informed by the APPRAISAL Theory, this book analyses the construction of evaluative meanings in web-based English tourism texts (ETTs). It investigates the semantic potentiality of evaluative meaning in English tourism texts on Chinese, British and American websites, as well as the similarities and differences in constructing evaluation among the three varieties of ETTs. It is aimed to discover the characteristic preferences for particular appraisal resources in constructing evaluation in native ETTs, and to find out the deficiencies in using evaluation in ETTs on Chinese websites. Two analytical procedures are adopted: first, based on large corpus files, it discusses the semantic potentiality for evaluative meaning in the three types of ETTs; then, various evaluation features are explored in detail concerning resources of ATTITUDE, ENGAGEMENT and GRADUATION under the APPRAISAL framework. All discussions are conducted by combining quantitative statistics with qualitative analyses. Theoretically, the study modifies and extends some aspects of the APPRAISAL Theory so as to facilitate the analysis of evaluation in tourism discourse. The study is also instructive for Chinese ESL/EFL writers in writing English tourist texts or translating Chinese tourism texts into English.

Download or read book The British on Holiday written by Hazel Andrews and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2011-06-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the only in-depth ethnographic study of British charter tourists. It is based on several months of participant observation of British charter tourists on holiday in Palmanova and Magaluf on the Mediterranean Island of Mallorca. With a focus on space, the body, and food and drink practices, the book explores the experiential nature of touristic practice which provides insight into constructions, understandings and knowledge of the self in relation to national, regional, class, and gender identities. These issues in turn highlight elements of power and control which are mainly articulated through the attempts to manipulate tourists' consumption practices by the mediators of tourists' experiences.

Book excerpt: The #1 New York Times bestseller. Over 20 million copies sold! Translated into 60+ languages! Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results No matter your goals, Atomic Habits offers a proven framework for improving--every day. James Clear, one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results. If you're having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn't you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don't want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you'll get a proven system that can take you to new heights. Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field. Learn how to: make time for new habits (even when life gets crazy); overcome a lack of motivation and willpower; design your environment to make success easier; get back on track when you fall off course; ...and much more. Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success, and give you the tools and strategies you need to transform your habits--whether you are a team looking to win a championship, an organization hoping to redefine an industry, or simply an individual who wishes to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce stress, or achieve any other goal.
