Book Reviews of Progress Without People: In Defense of Luddism
Book Review: Excellent overviews of current problems via history.
Summary: 5 Stars
Noble does an admirable job of encapsulating and synthesizing the current (2003) dilemma - by deskilling workers and paying them less so the rate of return for business is larger - one ends up with a surplus of goods because the deskilled low paid workers cannot afford said goods.
