"""This is a fresh, objective analysis of several extremely complicated issues. I particularly like the author's ability to examine his topic from a variety of perspectives: historical, political, and sociological. The narrative portions of the book are outstanding. The author writes well and addresses significant problems well beyond the immediate context of the study. The topic is significant and timely. Workplaces throughout the world, including the U.S., are undergoing major change, and the book explores with sensitivity the sometimes ambiguous relationship between democratic workplace practices and economic success and failure. There are lessons here for all of us."" - Morris L. Fried, University of Connecticut"
