In this fascinating book Roy Jacques presents a discursive history of industrial work relationships in the United States which powerfully demonstrates that they are not. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA central concern is to show that current  common-sense′ in management forms an historically and culturally specific way of thinking about work and society which is often inappropriate for  managing for the twenty-first century′.
