Recenzje

'Let's be honest; academic books tend to be dry, unnecessarily long, and hard to slog through. We're lucky, but should not be surprised, that Paul Gowder's book heartily bucks that norm. No one else can weave philosophical theories of governance and virtue, practical technical understanding of platforms, and political science into such a compelling package. Bravo!' Sahar Massachi, Co-Founder and Executive Director, Integrity Institute
