PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Päivi Kannisto is a researcher at Tilburg University, the Netherlands.
'This penetrating analysis of the challenges posed by global nomadism for individuals and societies pushes forward the frontiers of mobilities research. A compelling combination of theoretical and personal insights unravels the complexities of lives lived through new forms of mobilities.'- Allan Williams, University of Surrey, UK 'This is a highly intriguing and thought-provoking book about location-independent people who are always travelling. The book provides original insight and nuance into un-researched ways of life, which challenge conventional understandings of home, travel, work, and leisure. It makes us think about homelessness, obligations, consumption, and many other aspects of social life in new ways.'- Jorgen Ole Baerenholdt, Roskilde University, Denmark 'Paivi Kannisto has written a cutting-edge book on modern mobilities. She sheds new light on the nature of the mobile risk society and what dwelling in mobility seriously means. This is a highly innovative book. It is well crafted, thought-provoking and a pleasure for all those interested in mobility, modernity and social change.'- Sven Kesselring, Nurtingen-Geislingen University, Germany
