Personal Mobilities provides a systematic study of personal movement focusing on the dimensions of space; individuals; societies and technologies. Kellerman examines a variety of personal mobilities; including air transportation; through several perspectives; examining the human need for movement; their anchoring within wider societal trends; commonalities and differences among mobility technologies and international differences. Although spatial mobility seems geographical by its very nature; the topic has been so far treated only partially; and mainly by sociologists. Personal Mobilities highlights geographical as well as sociological aspects and is the first book to focus solely on personal mobilities.

I have my favorites; but in my current Christian school setting I wanted stories with meaning that I can tell the kids--plus the kids I see on a weekly basis are from 5 to 13 years old; which is a big range. Ive been there 5 years and I was feeling pretty stale; when I found this book. What a treasure! From folklore to written stories to adapted Tolstoy tales; each one of these stories is a keeper. What a great find!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy L. CheslockGreat short story book for all ages.
