Reviews for Policy Implications of Virtual Work
An extremely impressive, absorbing and highly readable and recommended collection of essays about contemporary and emerging work patterns. I certainly learned a great deal from the book, and I believe it will set the tone for different debates to come about the issues explored. (John Michael Roberts, British Journal of Industrial Relations, Vol. 56 (2), June, 2018)
