Preface
Where are no prerequisites to this book beyond an interest in labor-management relations. It has been designed to serve as an aid to all readers who desire a basic understanding of unionism in its natural habitat. With such a thrust, however, the volume focuses on certain areas, necessarily minimizing the treatment of others.
Labor Relations brings in, for example, sufficient economic material to allow a fundamental appreciation of the union-management process and stops at that point. Throughout, it has tried to make the various topic treatments short enough to be interesting while at the same time long enough to do justice to the subject. On the other hand, it in no way restricts itself to what is commonly described as collective bargaining. Its focus is on the negotiation and administration of labor agreements, with emphasis on the more significant bargaining issues as they now appear between the covers of the contracts. And these topics cannot profitably be studied in isolation. Labor relations can best be viewed as an interaction between two organizations—management and the labor union—and the parties to this interaction are always subject to various, often complex, environmental influences. Only after the reader gains an understanding of the evolving management and labor institutions, and only after the environment surrounding their interactional process has been appreciated, can he or she attempt to understand bargaining itself in any satisfactory way.
The book consequently begins with a broad overview of the general nature of the labor-management relationship as it currently exists in the United States (Part I). It then moves to a survey of the historical, legal, and structural environments that so greatly influence contractual contents and labor relations behavior (Part II). Finally, it presents a close examination of the negotiation, administration, and major contents of the labor agreement itself (Part III).
Through description, analysis, discussion questions, minicases (many of them with ethical dimensions) and selected arbitration cases drawn from the authors' own experiences, understanding of all these aspects of labor relations will, hopefully, be imparted.
This tenth edition, the first one written since Fred Witney's 1999 death, is marked by many changes—mainly additions, although all of the chapters have been given some streamlining and the new volume is essentially the same in size as its predecessors. Even in the four years since the ninth edition, developments in the field have warranted the inclusion of new material on card checks, labor's recent turn to different and more aggressive leadership, fast-track presidential authority and unions, major developments in public policy in the past few years, and the dues rebate controversy. I have also enlarged upon the prior treatment that Fred and I gave managerial health care cost containment, arbitration, the GM-UAW-Saturn relationship, and miscalculations in bargaining. Tax-deferred retirement savings plans are additionally now dealt with, as is the topic of the AFL-CIO and cyberspace. And the discussion of a host of other topics has, of course, been given a significant updating.
Many new visual aids are included also, as are an extensively revised bibliography, an amended mock negotiation problem, and a glossary.
Nonetheless, I have exercised self-restraint in the rewriting. Only changes that can be defended on the grounds of general improvement of Labor Relations have been incorporated. I have always firmly believed in the old Puritan dictum that "nothing should ever be said that doesn't improve upon silence," and also share with the late Calvin Coolidge the conviction that "if you don't say anything, no one will ever call upon you to repeat it."
ACKNOWLEDGMENTSWhen a book has reached the stage of a tenth edition, it stands indebted to so many people that individual acknowledgment is futile. As in the case of the prior editions, students, friends from the ranks of both management and labor, and colleagues at other educational institutions have offered constructive suggestions and many of these have been implemented. Rita M. Beasley, who cheerfully and competently provided many helpful services on behalf of this volume, does deserve a special citation, however. And so, for the same reasons, do the University of Delaware's Myrt Werkheiser and Nancy Sanderson.
Nor can the contributions of five outstanding Prentice Hall staffers—Managing Editor Jennifer Glennon, Production Editor Keri Jean, Managing Editor Judy Leale, Editorial Assistant Kim Marsden, and Acquisitions Editor David Shafer—go unrecognized. Most of all, I appreciate the support that Louise P. Sloane, my wife, gave me throughout the process: Everyone else will have to be satisfied with the acknowledgments; she alone may also share in the royalties.

Not a great book but better then others by this publisher
By Prime Reader
This is the first time I have not loved an Amazon textbook rental's quality. The book I received you can tell has been heavily used. It has quite a few markups and tons of stickers on the front and back cover. Note past rentals never had any stickers especially not multiple stickers on top of stickers on the covers. While this doesn't affect reading it's just not as nice of a book.
The book in itself is not that big. For the price that it is for sale and kindle copies you would expect much more. After receiving I wanted to return and get a kindle version since the book is pretty thin, text is fairly small and the pictures inside are all black and white. Unfortunately to rent the e-book of this its almost as much as buying the book. Its not Amazon its the publisher Pearson. Most of the textbooks I have had the pleasure of being assigned from Pearson are not well written, expensive and website support of the book is poor and costs extra unlike other textbook publishers. An example of Pearson is the PARCC test. I try to keep an open mind when I see a textbook published by Pearson but usually its a fail. Again this text isn't horrible like many of the other books by Pearson but the price of the ebook, the font size and the quality of the book received is not pleasing.

Wretched.
By Tim
This book is required for one of my classes, and to my eternal displeasure, used and referenced heavily for the class.
The writing is exceedingly dry, repetitive, and long winded. 40 pages (and these are large page sizes, too) to a chapter is very off-putting, and unpleasant to read.
Further, the text is just so horribly biased. I think, even if I were a huge union fan (I'm ambivalent), the book's sheer head-up-one's-ass approach would leave a sour taste in my mouth. The overwhelming amount of bias in the book is wholly unbecoming of a textbook, much less one used for higher level university courses.
Personally, the pervasive bias gives the text an unreputable vibe to me. It's such that I feel as if the authors are either trying too hard, or utterly fixated in the favor of Labor. Neither of those options make me want to accept the writing as authoritative. It feels almost like I'm reading a conspiracy theorist's blog - for class!
I'm on chapter three now; this is going to be a painfully long semester...

DON'T BUY SCHOOL TEXT BOOKS FROM AMAZON EVER IN YOUR LIFE
By VPDirector1
This book started to fall apart between 30 to 60 days after I received it. Amazon reprinted pages and had the book rebound which didn't work. It was so hard to keep placing the pages where they belong, and this wa also an aggravating process to follow as I worked through the book. I want to keep all of my school text books in my library but this book is meaningless to me at this point. I would encourage anyone to purchase textt books from other sources than from Google, its just not worth it, and a pain in the neck. If Amazon was to send me another copyy that would not fall apart, and I could put into my library, than I would say they did the right thing. However, the policy to return the book has far exceeded the 30 days. I don't want my money back, I just want a good book that will not fall apart when I turn the pages.
