Reviews

Well-researched and convincingly argued, Divided Unions is timely in its coverage of private- and public-sector labor over a period of nearly eighty years. I can think of no other book that comes close to accomplishing what Alexis N. Walker has accomplished. -Joseph E. Slater, University of Toledo College of Law Divided Unions offers a persuasive argument about the impact of federalism and geography on public sector unions that is sorely needed in current public discourse. -David B. Robertson, University of Missouri-St. Louis
