This is the message of Craig Gent's highly readable, urgently argued and carefully researched study of the digital automation of management, a vital book for labour activists, cyber-scholars, and all those fighting high-tech capitalisms increasingly inhuman power." -- Nick Dyer-Witheford, author of *Cyber-Marx*, *Cyber-Proletariat* and co-author of *The Cybernetic Circulation Complex* "Algorithmic management is a growing reality of the modern workplace. Craig Gent provides an important investigation into the power and politics that drive it, and how workers can challenge the ways it's used against them." -- Paris Marx, host of *Tech Won't Save Us* and author of *Road to Nowhere: What Silicon Valley Gets Wrong About the Future of Transportation* "A powerful and timely excavation of how new workplace technologies are in fact making workers of all stripes less free." -- Marc Kohlbry, *Boundary2* Best wishes, Craig Gent
