Reviews

[This] study of quality circles at Johnson and Johnson's Ethicon subsidiary in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is unique because Grenier was able to lift the corporate veil. Taken on as an unpaid research assistant by the plant's social psychologist, Grenier obtained permission to study how management used its participative program. He presents. a sobering analysis of how the superficially democratic quality of working life (Q.W.L.) groups facilitated managerial control. Inhuman Relations makes it clear that the tools social scientists have provided management are very powerful. --David Bensman, The Nation
