When most people think geologist in a natural tourist destination is only able to tell you the rock's history (geotourism or geological tourism), the author argue: geologist able to do more than just explaining the rocks! The author offer new opportunities through his idea of tourism geology: increase visitor experience, increasing safety awareness, new tourist attraction / tourist destination, new tourism market, or even new tourism type. Tourism geology idea is able to be applied anywhere: National Park, National Monument, UNESCO Geopark, even deep ocean floor or Mars! Tourism geology idea is provided as the other new perspective on geology and tourism relation. It is about the future of tourism and also business opportunity where geological knowledge able to support various types of tourism markets, e.g. the markets of: o Sun and Beach Tourism o Adventure Tourism o Health Tourism o Medical Tourism o Cave Tourism o Volcano Tourism o Deep Sea Tourism o Moon Tourism o Mars Tourism Written by a geologist who dedicated his years to develop it, he shares his perspective in: o 1 chapter of introduction depicts the general description of the book, o 4 chapters of know-why arguments which describe tourism geology phylosophy, tourist attraction, tourist activity, safety, and impact of the activity, what make it differ with geotourism, and o 5 chapters of know-how knowledge as research demonstration.

This book describes famous geosites and historical localities in national parks and conservation areas from North America, East Africa, and Europe. The geosites include iconic landforms associated with active volcanoes, canyons, glaciated landscapes, natural rock monoliths, and rifts. The potential for geotourism in historical localities such as the famous Greco-Roman antiquities of Greece, Italy, and Turkey, is emphasised. Some of the geosites and historical localities provide evidence that previous civilizations coped with active geology and major climatic cycles, whilst others reveal evidence of famous geological events recognized in history and ancient mythology that helped shape our current civilization. The book assists tour guides and visitors (both geologists and non-specialists) interested in geotourism by providing an understanding of geological processes in the national parks and historical locations with the assistance of photographs and simplified geological maps.

"You can't really know the place where you live until you know the shapes and origins of the land around you. To feel truly at home in the Bay Area, read Doris Sloan's intriguing stories of this region's spectacular, quirky landscapes."—Hal Gilliam, author of Weather of the San Francisco Bay Region "This is a fascinating look at some of the world's most complex and engaging geology. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in an understanding of the beautiful landscape and dynamic geology of the Bay Area."—Mel Erskine, geological consultant "This accessible summary of San Francisco Bay Area geology is particularly timely. We are living in an age where we must deal with our impact on our environment and the impact of the environment on us. Earthquake hazards, and to a lesser extent landslide hazards, are well known, but the public also needs to be aware of other important engineering and environmental impacts and geologic resources. This book will allow Bay Area residents to make more intelligent decisions about the geological issues affecting their lives."—John Wakabayashi, geological consultant
