Detailing the attempts by the management of British coal companies to achieve control in the presence of one of Britain's most powerful unions, Edwards and Heery here describe the processes of labor management employed at each level of the coal-mining industry. They evaluate the success of these processes in management terms, and review the wider, frequently unanticipated, consequences of their adoption.
