"The interdisciplinary field of mobility studies has expanded exponentially over the last years as the scholars included in this invaluable handbook have transformed the discussion of technology, transportation, communication, geography, and travel in the post-colonial context of war, globalization, and urbanization. This text offers a creative yet practical approach to the dynamic subjects and objects of a world of moving parts to provide insights into the terms and concepts of mobilities today." - Caren Kaplan, Professor, American Studies, UC Davis"...this book provides an all-encompassing collection intended to provide encyclopædic coverage of mobility, its effects, and conceptual dilemmas for the social system. One of the strengths of the collection is the discussion about the extent to which mobilities may create a new cosmology for lay people and social scientists."– Maximiliano E. Korstanje, Department of Economics, University of Palermo, published in Annals of Tourism Research
