But the access mobile phones provide is costly, insecure and limited, producing an experience of being \u003ci\u003eprecariously connected\u003c\/i\u003e. Drawing on findings of research conducted with over one hundred young people, families and adults experiencing homelessness in Australia and the United States, this book analyses homelessness as a mediated condition and explores the underpinning processes that shape digital disparities.
