The Virtual Organization, ah yes, there is nothing quite like the Virtuality of the office. Wherever I go, I take my office with me. Simply wonderful! Freedom at last. Really? Freedom from what? Didn't you get paid for working in the office? Of course you did. Slavery is not a virtue in the 21st Century. If you work without ever being paid, you must be a good-natured volunteer. If you are not a volunteer and work without pay without choosing to do so, you are a slave and Slavery is a very serious crime in this country. It is your pay for working that contributes to the social freedoms you enjoy.
This book explores the deep and wider look at the nature of the Virtual Organization. You can say that it examines Virtuality virtually, in the here and now. I raise a number of issues, probably a mixture of old and new. Every now and then, I include a "Thought Break" as a way of reviewing the ideas about Virtuality previously presented as a way to connect one section with another to strengthen the message implicit in each section. These "Thought Breaks" are important to the wider and deeper development of the book's message. Each person can choose to resolve the Thought Breaks to deepen his or her understanding of Virtuality, or not. This is not a course on Virtuality. There is no grading here except you the reader assessing your own understanding of the Virtual Organization for yourself. I wrote this book to assist you in working as a virtual employee now or in the future if the opportunity already has arisen or will arise sooner or later down the road of modern life. What you read here today, you can use tomorrow means something real to me and I hope to my audience. I suppose some readers can use this book kind of like a "personal consultant" to deepen their understanding of the range of Virtuality in the current office landscape. This book questions much of the current thinking about the rationale for adopting the Virtual Organization.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
