Review Quotes:
'This superb collection is a fitting tribute to the pivotal influence of British sociologist John Urry (1946-2016) in rethinking the importance of mobility in contemporary societies. Within it a global array of key thinkers on the sociology, geography and politics of mobility reflect poignantly on how Urry's remarkable mind and generous spirit touched their work both personally and intellectually. Highly recommended!'
