Platform Revolution: How Networked Markets Are Transforming the Economy--and How to Make Them Work for You by Geoffrey G. ParkerMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I thought this book would be a tad outdated at this point, but by and large it is all still quite relevant. This is probably required reading for anyone working in any sort of platform company, and in fact will be useful to anyone who even uses platforms for their work, since it gives a much more in depth understanding of the structure of platforms and how they differ from classic supply chain businesses.
The last chapter is probably the most interesting during these days of Coronavirus, since many of the changes the authors predicted were slow to catch on, but seem to be accelerated just during these past couple weeks. Who knows how far it will go?
