摘要:"This book presents a broad and comprehensive examination of the phenomenon of shopping as a tourist and leisure activity. Issues related to consumption and identity are identified as they relate to leisure and tourism. Traditionally, most research on shopping has highlighted the activity's utilitarian and economic functions; however, this work also examines the hedonistic, or leisure motivations and contexts."--Jacket.
