‘<i>Platform Capitalism</i> is a high definition snapshot of the current political economic situation than manages to get a lot of detail into a tight frame. It offers a convincing image of the current stage of capitalist development as a series of variations on the theme of the platform as a means of consolidating or seizing a kind of monopoly leverage over not only distribution but also production. Srnicek gives good reasons for thinking the platform moment in capital accumulation might be less all-conquering than it looks.’<br /><b>McKenzie Wark, author of <i>Telethesia: Communication, Culture and Class<br /><br /></i></b>"Probe the slithering, creeping collusion between public and private, work and exhaustion, capitalism and death. As cars transform into terrorist devices and public housing explodes into flame through neglectful policies, planning and practices, we require books to understand the loss of agency, the loss of choice and the permanent revolution of fear, confusion and ignorance."<br /><b><i>Times Higher Education Supplement<br /><br /></i></b>"…Srnicek builds an illuminating 120-page dissertation on where the platform came from, and where it might take us."<b><br /><i><b>Literary Review of Canada<br /><br /></b></i></b>"It’s one of those books that so neatly gets to the heart of how modern society in the 21st century functions."<b><br /></b><b><i>Pajiba</i></b><b><i><br /></i></b>
