This book examines the symbiotic relationship between museums,
heritage attractions and tourism, using a range of international case
studies. Divided into three clear sections, the author first outlines
a theoretical framework for understanding the role of museums in
heritage tourism, before addressing practical challenges of
interpretation, design and pandemic response. Finally, he traces the
development of museum and heritage attraction design through the key
figures of John Ruskin, James Gardner and Alex McCuaig. Each chapter
incorporates a key case study, with an international scope including
examples from Hong Kong, the UK, Taiwan, Qatar, Dubai and Kuwait. An
essential introduction for undergraduate and graduate students taking
courses in museum studies, heritage studies and tourism management.
