About this book

These are two of the many favourable reviews of the first edition. In this new second edition the authors have revised and updated their successful and well received textbook by examining further changes in government policy, the law, unions and management together with their effects upon pay and productivity, the nature and scope of collective bargaining and Britain's strike record. The authors have included a new round of interviews of leading practitioners and their views and a contemporary analysis of developments in the European Community.
