"A highly readable introduction to IR concepts and UK industrial relations." - Dr. Nathan Lillie, University of Jyvaskyla, Finland Praise for the 3rd edition: "The third edition of Burchill's book continues to provide a lucid, well structured and informed picture of the contemporary British industrial relations scene. It will be of interest and value to students, researchers, practitioners and policy makers with a stake in this field of study." - Ian Kessler, Reader in Employment Relations, Said Business School, University of Oxford, UK "Frank Burchill provides a very readable introduction to labour relations.
