About this ebook
During the 20th century, the unprecedented growth of the futures markets has enabled the greatest advancements the world has ever seen. With the dawn of the 21st century, the ongoing rise of new technology continues to reshape its capability to match the ever-developing needs and preferences of people. Professor Shoshana Zuboff notes such events, and unlike most people, she dedicated a lot of her time to get to the bottom of this. Ultimately, she came up with the term "surveillance capitalism."
The Age of Surveillance Capitalism: The Fight for a Human Future at the New Frontier of Power by Shoshana Zuboff immediately became a hit and was included in the editor's pick in the best nonfiction section of Amazon. It is also recognized as an International Bestseller, A New York Times Notable Book of the Year, a Financial Times Best Book of the Year, and a Sunday Times (UK) Best Business Book of the Year and was even listed in former president Barack Obama's favorite books of 2019.
