The first part can be pretty depressing, as Rifkin lists whole categories of work that are being replaced by machines -- even service jobs!
However, the latter section of the book shows strategies that might be used to spread out work so that more people can remain employed. I think we would have to fight the establishment to get these options adopted, tho.

Essential reading for anybody looking to the labor force of the future. Hopefully Rifkin's analysis comes to fruitian
