Examines how place images are created, articulated, developed and assessed at a variety of scales and contexts. Chapters one through three present a theoretical analysis of how images are created, use insights from communication theory, as well as describe a ``vocabulary'' and ``grammar'' of effective place promotion. The remainder of the book analyzes specific types of place promotion in a series of thematic but example-rich chapters covering cities, suburbs, industrial towns, fairs and festivals, the countryside, the American west, China and Eastern Europe.
