Aus den Rezensionen: "Dass Deutschland Reiseweltmeister ist, ist keine Floskel. ! Dies und einiges mehr ist der jungst erschienenen Studie ! zu entnehmen, zu der 23 AutorInnen Beitrage besteuerten. ! Diana Jaffe ! stellt ! die lange in der Tourismusindustrie praferierte ! Auffassung in Frage, Urlaubs- und Geschaftsreisen wurden von Frauen 'separat betrachtet' und liefert ein interessantes Argument, weshalb diese Auffassung langst nicht mehr gilt, wenn sie denn je gegolten hat. ! Maria Putz-Willems ! gibt einen knappen Auberblick zum Markt ! Die Studie ! gleicht einer Handlungsanleitung, einem Leitfaden fur Entscheider !"
