Description

Discusses how data is replacing money as the driver of market behavior and shares predictions for how data will revolutionize the market economy and make cash, banks, and big companies obsolete. --Publisher."In modern history, the story of capitalism has been a story of firms and financiers. That's all going to change thanks to the Big Data revolution. As Viktor Mayer-Schn?berger, bestselling author of Big Data, and Thomas Ramge, who writes for The Economist, show, data is replacing money as show more the driver of market behavior. Big finance and big companies will be replaced by small groups and individual actors who make markets instead of making things: think Uber instead of Ford, or Airbnb instead of Hyatt. This is the dawn of the era of data capitalism. Will it be an age of prosperity or of calamity?"--Publisher's description. show less
