Summarised handouts highlighting significant elements of each chapter

Key points for consideration.
When jobs become obsolete should everybody get a basic income to live comfortably
Basic needs of food, shelter, safety, health and wellbeing once satisfied, will it minimise poverty?
Would a basic free income enable people to choose activities that are creative, innovative, productive and purposeful?
What would a transition to this new world look like?
