Just finished THE PERSUADERS by @AnandWrites Against all odds, it made me want to get to know my country better. I knew this was going to be an important book, but it’s also a beautiful one that plucked my heart strings in the end.

Thanks Alec. In the book there is a section about how Amazon has emerged as the modern day heir to GE when it comes to devising new tactics to keep workers destabilized. Something you know very well from your own book FULFILLMENT, which everyone should check out!
