Book Review: Labor-Management Relations: Racial Conflict and Negotiations: Perspectives and First Case Studies

unfortunately not possible with the formula adopted in this work, in which the ephemeral tends to obscure the longer term message. This is not to say there are no good things in this volume. The chapter contributions of the editors are, as individual pieces, of high quality; the pieces by George Bain and Derek Robinson (on white-collar unionism and labor markets, respectively) reflect their considerable expertise in these fields, and there is something of lasting value in the trade union views on employee participation and productivity. On the purely practical level, H. J. Hebden's account of Massey-Ferguson's approach to personnel strategy provides some interesting insights that could serve as a guide for other practitioners. Despite these good points, the collection as a whole remains off-target. The American reader may, however, find it of interest in presenting a cross-sectional view of British industrial relations as it began its transition to a new stage of development, the final shape of which is still far from clear.
