The Age of Surveillance Capitalism: The Fight for a Human Future at the New Frontier of Power, integrates her lifelong themes: the digital revolution, the evolution of capitalism, the historical emergence of psychological individuality, and the conditions for human development. Zuboff's work is the source of many concepts including 'surveillance capitalism', 'instrumentarian power', 'the division of learning in society', 'economies of action', 'the means of behavior modification', 'information civilization', 'computer-mediated work', 'automate/informate' dialectic, 'abstraction of work' & 'individualization of consumption'. Derived from a Kirkus review: The traditional corporate organization chart may go the way of the dodo as factories and offices switch to all-out computerized automation.

Experienced operators can not only correct mistakes, but can also use the electronic brain to solve problems and even improve routine operations.
