Rezensionen
"Book is a description of the new possibilities - possibilities already exploited in some workplaces - and a call to action amongst those companies that have so far not embraced the new opportunities available to them. ... 'Future work' will be flexible in terms of where work is done and when it is done, and this will better serve the needs of both women and men in the workforce than the eight hour day spent at a single workplace away from home." (Citizens Income Newsletter, citizensincome.org, January, 2016)
