New book on UK industrial relations relevant for practitioners and researchers
Features26 February 2010
Current ideas and developments in employment, its regulation and management are explored in Warwick's new text Industrial Relations: Theory and Practice.
Published in the year that the world-renowned Industrial Relations Research Unit celebrates its 40th anniversary and edited by Trevor Colling and Michael Terry, this is the latest edition of this well-established work. Fully revised and containing several new chapters, it covers key issues in employment relations, labour law and the management of work. The authors, all leading authorities in their field, most of whom work at WBS or have strong links to the School, analyse the latest ideas and research.
Described as a 'must-read' by Professor Harry Katz at Cornell, it will be invaluable to students and researchers in the UK and elsewhere who want to understand British industrial relations after twelve years of Labour government. The book is a powerful restatement of the importance of the subject and its continuing - and increasing - relevance to students and practitioners alike.
