Produktbeschreibung
Sharing isn't new. Giving someone a ride, having a guest in your spare room, running errands for someone, participating in a supper club - these are not revolutionary concepts. What is new, in the "sharing economy," is that you are not helping a friend for free; you are providing these services to a stranger for money. In this book, Arun Sundararajan, an expert on the sharing economy, explains the transition to what he describes as "crowd-based capitalism" - a new way of organizing economic activity that may supplant the traditional corporate-centered model. As peer-to-peer commercial exchange blurs the lines between the personal and the professional, how will the economy, government regulation, what it means to have a job, and our social fabric be affected?

Rezensionen
So all in all, a very interesting book by one the most knowledgeable researchers on the sharing economy. Well worth a read.
The Enlightened Economist

Sundararajan knows his stuff. He's an award winning scholar who writes with a clarity that masks the compleity of his subject.
Finance and Development

In his new book, Arun Sundararajan paints a rosy picture of the revolutionary companies and platforms that are altering the nature of work.
Strategy + Business

Sundararajan . . . sees enough value in the sharing economy.
TED

His case for optimism in his new book is compelling in large part because it comes from a business-school wonk and not a 'sharing!' proselytizer devoted to the literal meaning of the word.
