B. Atkinson and F. Bourguignon, Elsevier-North Holland, forthcoming). Like the other chapters in the volume (and its predecessor), the aim is to provide comprehensive review of a particular area of research.

We review mobility concepts, descriptive devices, measurement methods, data sources, and recent empirical evidence.
