Kritik
"The book is a relevant addition to ICT communication research and gives a marvellous insight into transnational familyhood. ... The book is recommended reading for mobility as well as communication researchers, but it could also be of interest for a much wider audience because it offers interesting insights into contemporary behaviour patterns." (Keiu Telve, Nordic Journal of Migration Research, Vol. 8 (3), 2018)mehr
