"Challenging and important, giving voice to workers on the front
line of our growing gig economy, this book is a must read for trade
unionists, policymakers and everyone with an interest in making
work better amidst rapid technological change."
Frances O'Grady, Trades Union Congress General Secretary "At
a time when governments the world over turn away from workers,
scholar-activists Woodcock and Graham offer a critical introduction
to the global gig economy. They investigate innovative ways in
which new forms of unions can help to tackle the Trojan Horse of
gig labour."

Economy at The New School "[A] vital new contribution."
