The Tourist Gaze 3.0 by John UrryMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Fascinating from start to finish, opening up new perspectives on the nature of tourism that I'd never seriously considered before - extremely readable yet academically rigorous. Being a decade old, some aspects are slightly dated now (particularly the frequent mentions of web 2.0!) but almost all can still be applied to more modern aspects of travel such as Instagram and AirBnB - will be interesting to see the long-term impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on tourism as a concept.
