Overview

'...the editors have done an excellent job of shaping the collection. Most of the essays are easy to comprehend, have minimal polemical content on a topic that lends itself to rhetoric, and are dominated by ideas. This book is a good introduction and statement of current thought on the promotion of self-management as the basis for the organization of production.'—Industrial and Labor Relations Review, January 1982

'With this collection we have a very full diet of reading and anyone concerned with what is variously called industrial democracy, workers' control or self-managed enterprises, will be bound to find in it something of interest.'—Industrial Relations Journal, Nov//Dec 1980
