Reviews
Serious political-economic analyses are accompanied by interesting in-flight anecdotes. * Sociological Abstracts *
A compelling and scholarly perspective. * The Houston Chronicle *
Life in the Air is a unique look at multiple facets of air travel, that new social reality that engulfs, structures, and frustrates the lives of growing millions. Sometimes political-economic analysis, sometimes in-flight anecdotes, but always thought-provoking, Gottdiener's tour de force forces a rethinking of the kaleidoscopic realities of life as lived, or suffered, in airplanes and airports. -- Joe R. Feagin, Texas A&M University
