The book also examines corporate attempts to use technology and the fear of automation to further exploit workers.
Finally Taylor looks at the future and the climate catastrophe in a capitalist world that only sees the world through the lens of the short-term profits. She argues for the need to extend rights to nature by fighting to counteract profit-seeking ventures with real democracy.
