"When I look for
informed understanding of the emerging effects of mobile phone use,
I count on Rich Ling not only for sound theory and empirical
foundations, but for insight and engaging writing."

"At one time, we
traveled to communicate or sat at home or work, waiting for the
phone to ring. Now, the calls come wherever we are, whether we like
it or not. This is the first comprehensive account of the mobile
society, going well behind the ringtones to discuss how we're using
mobile phones and how they are using us."
Barry Wellman, University of Toronto
James E. Katz, Rutgers University
