I had already been familiar with Paul Mason from watching some of his interviews in support of basic income. This book gives a good overview about the history behind neoliberalism and the historical context of labour economics (Marx et al.). I had wanted a bit more insight into how we get to a postcapitalistic society, but he mostly proposed ideas of Lenin contemporaries and/or related it to the transition between feudalism and capitalism (hint: one theory of the increase in valuation of labour was due to plague-induced labour shortage). There were some pretty optimistic "next steps" at the end of the book, which I have a hard time see happening in the near future. But as a technologist [ie. works in automating your jobs], it is nice to see someone actually thinking about the impacts of the changing valuation of labour and outlining some policies to see us through them.
