商品簡介
While writing previous books The Internet on Earth (2002) and Personal Mobilities (2006), Kellerman (emeritus, U. of Haifa) noted a difference between routine movement such as commuting to work and from non-routine mobilities such as tourism and migration. Here he focuses on the former, looking at the roots and nature of daily spatial mobilities, daily mobility types, and spatial implications. Among his topics are needs and triggers, potential mobilities, terrestrial and virtual daily mobilities, urban spatial reorganization, and opportunities through daily virtual mobilities.
