?We recommend this volume highly to all who wish to learn more
about the gamut of societies sharing peripatetic adaptations that
formerly characterized all Gypsy groups and gave rise to analogous
Traveler groups. The ethnographic descriptions of many of the
articles are rich and nuanced and will provide much food for
thought to all who care to contemplate the larger picture of
peripatetic adaptations.?-Romani Studies
