* The Post-Published Review (PPR) is a new department introduced to expand the insights produced by the published papers in Tourism Recreation Research, particularly those attempting to develop a concept in pursuit of knowledge creation or pose some epistemological query and seek to fill in gap in received information and so on. PPR contributions (in <2000 words) which must be constructive, re-inventing, academic and prejudice-free are welcome. For details, write to Editor-in-Chief ([email protected]).
