Garth Lean, Russell Staiff and Emma Waterton are all at the University of Western Sydney, Australia.’This book closely engages in the experience and remembering of diverse spaces of our lives, virtual and very real and fleshy; familiar and otherwise. Much here is new, new angles, new examples, new kinds of stories. Its chapters are insightful of the way imagination works, flows and feels in body-mind, expressed in representation and otherwise; in human lives.’ David Crouch, University of Derby, UK ’This collection reminds us that there is no human travel without imagination but also that travelling usually fuels that imagination. In an evocative way and through a refreshing multidisciplinary lens the various contributors tease out the highly dynamic relationship between the two concepts. As such, the book launches the reader into an imaginative scholarly journey that has just begun.’ Noel B. Salazar, University of Leuven, Belgium 'Travel and Imagination lends itself to creativity and arguably a catalyst for imagination in people with travel as a focus. Many tourism student activities can also elevate the creativity in classes focusing on the travel industry and the imagination of the students.' European Journal of Tourism Research '... not only engaging and intellectually stimulating, but also presented in a creative and imaginative manner. ... It certainly engaged my own imagination as it led me on to the other chapters with a sense of discovery and excitement. ... Each chapter is well crafted and a delight to read in its own right.' Annals of Tourism Research
