Reviews

`Marsden's deductive analysis of employment systems is interesting and insightful from a micro-level perspective.'
Suzanne J.Konzelmann
"A recent elegantly written book by Professor David Marsden at the London School of Economics provides further evidence of the need for the closing of that perceived gap between work and how it is organised." Robert Taylor, Financial Times, 03/02/2000
