Confronting the hotly-debated prospect of mounting job losses due to automation, and the widely-divergent hopes and fears that prospect evokes, this book proposes a strategy for both mitigating the losses and spreading the gains from shrinking demand for human labour. What the book proposes for a foreseeable future of less work will help address growing economic inequality and persistent racial stratification as we face the prospect of net job losses.
