'Any teacher who wants students to have a stimulating, original
and thought provoking introduction to the sociology of work should
ensure that this collection is in their hands.' -- Colin Crouch,
Professor of Sociology, European University Institute,
Florence
'Work is sure to remain central to our lives yet the future of work has been subject to so much spin that it seems to have got out of control. Keith Grint recognizes the dangers and steers a judicious course between apocalyptic visions and plodding his selection for the Reader. The wide-ranging scope of this book provides something fresh for the most jaded specialist and encourages newcomers to the field to discard their comforting prejudice.' -- Ray Pahl, Institute of Social and Economic Research, University of Essex
