Mobile Media Practices, Presence And Politics (Routledge Studies In New Media And Cyberculture)

The mobile phone--especially in the form of smartphone--is now ushering in new promises of seamlessness between engagement with technology and everyday common experiences. This volume argues, however, that these transitions are far from seamless. It is these seams that this volume acknowledges, challenges and explores--socially, culturally, technologically and historically--as we move to a deeper understanding of the role and impact of mobile communication's saturation throughout the world.
