Description:
The Technology Trap is a sweeping account of the history of technological progress and how it has radically shifted the distribution of economic and political power among society's members. As Carl Benedikt Frey shows, the Industrial Revolution created unprecedented wealth and prosperity over the long run, but the immediate consequences of mechanisation were devastating. Middle-income jobs withered, wages stagnated, the labor share of income fell, profits surged, and economic inequality skyrocketed. These trends broadly mirror those in our current age of automation. But, just as the Industrial Revolution eventually brought about extraordinary benefits for society, artificial intelligence systems have the potential to do the same. The Technology Trap demonstrates that in the midst of another technological revolution, the lessons of the past can help us to more effectively face the present.
'Frey's story is well argued and — at times — deeply alarming.' — John Thornhill,Financial Times
'An excellent analysis of past industrial revolutions, the technologies that emerged within them, and the way societies adapted to those changes.' — Adi Gaskell,Forbes
'The Technology Trapmay well ensnare doom-seekers' attention with its ominous-sounding title. But it should ultimately hearten anyone who reads it.' —The Economist

Good shirts
100% cotton. Yay! And thicker than the normal
100% cotton shirts I have found. Made well. Could do with better designs and colors but overall am happy.

Good
Number of Items: 3, Color: Grey/Blue/Sea, Size: Medium
Really good quality for everyday wear. The fabric is soft and comfortable, and the shirts are true to size. They hold up well after washing and don’t shrink. Perfect basic tees for kids — easy to mix and match and great value for the price.

Size up, great quality
Number of Items: 3, Color: Grey/Blue/Sea, Size: X-Small
I ordered the XS and I have to say they run small. They fit my 2 year old not 6 year old. So size up. But honestly love the quality of Amazon essential shirts. I buy these for my kids pjs they are very soft

Comfy and Cool Shark Shirt
Number of Items: 1, Color: Ivory Sharks, Size: X-Small
We live near the beach, so I love finding ocean themed clothing for my little grandson. He loves this colorful swimming sharks crew neck t-shirt. He says it looks "cool." The cotton blend material is soft and and gentle against his skin. It's breathable and slightly stretchy. . The stitching is straight and consistent with no loose threads. We have fun talking about the different sharks, and the shirt looks great with his everyday jeans, joggers, or shorts. If you want some growing room, I suggest ordering a size up. The 5T is just a little long and roomy in the shoulders for my grandson who usually wears size 4. For laundering, I turn the shirt inside out and wash on cold to preserve the print. I haven't noticed any shrinkage or fading. I've been drying it on a warm setting (though cool is ideal), but I’m pretty careful not to leave it in the dryer too long to avoid wrinkles. He's been wearing it since his birthday in February, and so far, it's kept its shape, and seems to resist stains. If you have a little one that loves sharks, this check out this comfy ocean themed crew neck.
