The Semiotics of Heritage Tourism
This book presents a new way of understanding heritage tourism that focuses on what people feel and not just what they see. Traditionally, semiotics points to the study of signs and symbols, and how we use them to make sense of the world. Here semiotics is extended into our other senses as part of what it means to experience heritage as tourists.

Steve Watson is Principal Lecturer in Tourism at York St John University in the UK.
