  • "As one of the people who has edited this new book on Romanian tourism by Cornelia Pop, et. al., I have been most impressed with this volume. As a tourism researcher who specializes in rural, remote and non-pscychocentric destinations, I believe this book has done an incredible job of tracing the evolution of the tourism industry in Romania. It has presented historical, political, geographic, and economic factors that have ontributed to the slow development of tourism in this area of eastern Europe. The book is very well researched and documented. The depth of examples is extremely impressive. As one who has known Dr. Pop for several years, this volume is a reflection of her own qualities of perseverence and attention to detail. Clearly she is also surrounded by an excellent group of scholars. I am anticipating the publication of this volume and can assure you that it will instantly gain a place in our library"
