Bücher der Reihe Studies in Mobile Communication

From smartphones to tablets, mobile media is increasingly playing a central role in the representation, sharing, and experience of events public and private, formal and informal. Drawing on cross-cultural fieldwork, Haunting Hands considers the role mobile media practices and rituals provide as fundamental insights into contemporary notions of life, death, and loss.

In Negotiating Control: Organizations and Mobile Communication, Keri K. Stephens draws on over two decades of research and fieldwork to locate the underlying-and often hidden-issues of control and power that shape how people use mobile phones to communicate while working.
