This book “Social Entrepreneurship and Tourism: Philosophy and Practice” edited by Pauline J. Sheldon and Roberto Daniele is a recent addition to Springer’s “Business and management” series. The book aims at advancing knowledge of tourism and social entrepreneurship. It explores the tourism social entrepreneurship both in theory and practice (by using case studies from several countries), and sets forth a ground for future research and education. The book is divided into three main sections. As expected, this book would contribute to studies of tourism, entrepreneurship and/or development. Specifically, the book will be eminently suitable as a text for courses to students, and of interest to academics, researchers, and those involved in tourism social entrepreneurship as it presents a wealth of information combined with a diverse range of views on the subject.
