"This engaging memoir goes beyond detailing a period in Gwin's life, also offering a
forthright take on the frustrations of the contract worker. It's an essential piece for understanding the fight for labor rights. Gwin's resolve shines through in this moving tale." --Philip Zozzaro, Booklist

"Written with clarity and drive, [Team Building] provides a how-to guide to unionizing, as Gwin gets into the nitty-gritty of the hurdles and landmines obstructing the path to collective bargaining." --Jody DiPerna, PINJ

"A must-read for anyone interested in how capitalism and the gig economy have failed us and what we can do to persevere." --Christine Stroud, author of The Buried Return

"Team Building is a fascinating and important story about work and life in the tech trenches of America today and the very real implications of corporate greed and the opioid crisis on one family in Pittsburgh. Ben Gwin gives a clear-eyed account of his time helping to organize the contract workers at Google Pittsburgh while raising his daughter in the wake of her mother's death by overdose. With obstacles around every corner, Team Building tells the story of an unlikely victory scratched out one vote, post-softball game Wendy's meal, or scratch single at a time." --Dave Housley, author of The Other Ones and Massive Cleansing Fire
