"The book is nicely edited, informative, and its chapters are of a good length with numerous nice color figures ... . It is an important book that is the product of the first attempt to produce a strong and balanced overview of the current state of volcano tourism research. I would say that the book reaches this goal, and I recommend the book to anyone who wishes to work on volcanic geoheritage, volcano tourism, or even in volcano geoconservation projects."
