Following on the success of the Why We Post book series (which has passed one million downloads), the Anthropology of Smartphones and Smart Ageing project, a multi-sited comparative project based at UCL Anthropology, is launching a new eleven volume book series called Ageing with Smartphones. The project is comparative analysis of the impact of the smartphone on the experience of mid-life, and saw 11 researchers spend 16 months in 9 countries around the world.
