This book is about host-guest encounters in tourism, and specifically focuses on the host gaze.

It also identifies different types of host gazes and roles associated with them, as well as various categories of visitor that are recognized in the host gaze. The book analyses important religious, communal, cultural as well as psychological and emotional aspects of the host gaze.
