This text encourages students to think about the importance of research in informing good practice and to appreciate the role that it plays in the tourism industry. Additionally, it provides students with innovative ideas and inspiration to undertake their own research work in Tourism and inform them of the wide diversity of research strategies and contexts that are available. The content is written from a researcher´s point of view and will provide a step by step guide to accomplish a research project or dissertation in the field of tourism. The reader is guided right from the beginning in selecting a topic for research, identifying research aims and objectives and research questions.
