"In 'Uber for everything' explains Rens journalist the consequences of the advance of Deliveroo on demand companies like Uber, and Airbnb.
We order a taxi via Uber, a cleaner via Helpling and a meal from the hotel's Deliveroo – the key players in the on demand economy. There is an Uber for everything. Fine, because easier. Or maybe not?
Lancaster explains the shadow side of this new economy. He interviewed policy makers, investors and entrepreneurs, but also top managers at Uber, Helpling and Deliveroo, and looked under the hood of the on demand economy by itself for these companies to work. In 'Uber for everything', he explores how on demand businesses work and how they work, our behavior and our surroundings change dramatically."
