On the Move presents a rich history of one of the key concepts of modern life: mobility. Increasing mobility has been a constant throughout the modern era, evident in mass car ownership, plane travel, and the rise of the Internet. Typically, people have equated increasing mobility with increasing freedom.

Through a series of fascinating historical episodes Cresswell shows how mobility and its regulation have been central to the experience of modernity.
