For those teaching about tourism, an alternative type of case study is once again in the news: health tourism, or in this case, cosmetic surgery tourism.

This Guardian article describes some of the issues, and examples where this is already happening.
Search the LivingGeography blog for tourism, and you can find some further ideas for bringing tourism up to date.
