It was amazing how affordable this book was made because of amazon. Although a used, older edition, the book was in excellent condition.

I took a required collective bargaining course at the school at which Katz teaches. This book is best bought used–if at all–because the minutiae and jargon make it very field-specific. Additionally, the left-skew of the text makes it pretty useful for those who wish to engage in union organizing and class warfare, but only useful to normal people as a means for understanding such an ideological extreme. The organization of the text is fine for those familiar with the subject and the definitions are helpful for those who are not.
The book is overpriced for the amount of actual classwork it could provide. I would recommend looking for other texts to suit your collective bargaining learning needs. The title is a misnomer; it should be called “An Indoctrination to Collective Syphoning & Labor Recalcitrancy.”

This book was the required reading for an introductory class to the subject of industrial relations and collective bargaining. Experienced in the business world, I found this text difficult at best to follow, especially in terms of an historical time-line. I found the material extremely fragmented in presentation, seemingly jumping from one focus to another. It was a challenge to associate the context with the section headers, as the flow was not comfortably predictable. The text often assumes a prerequisite of knowledge that I didn’t expect of introductory course material. The book also introduces terminoloy (often in bold text) and concepts upon which it never elaborates. Overall, I did not find the text supportive to learning. I relied heavily on online resources to fill in the gaps in order to pass the course.
