Reviews

Paul F. Clark, author of Building More Effective Unions:

"I have used a number of different labor relations and collective bargaining textbooks over the years, and the Katz, Kochan, and Colvin text stands out for its clarity and insight."

Greg Bamber, Monash University and Newcastle University, and coeditor, International & Comparative Employment Relations:

"The leading experts have revised and improved the best book in the field. It is essential reading, particularly for its coherent analytical framework. Its discussion of relevant legal systems is especially valuable. Students, professors, and practitioners will appreciate its pathfinding analysis of management and union strategies, including in the public sector. They will welcome the astute analyses of global pressures, including multinational enterprises and nongovernmental organization,s and of the future of labor relations."
