"This is an interesting, innovative, well-written and conceptualized book, one which goes beyond the ordinary 'collection' in its coherence and in the ways in which the pieces speak to each other. Providing an engaging complexification of the notion of 'class' as it does, the volume also gives readers a sense of the complex varieties of work, identity and power in the late-twentieth-century U.S. An engaging read backed up by solid scholarship." — Donald Brenneis, Pitzer College"The topic, power in the workplace, is very significant. It is important for the anthropology and sociology of work and for the light it could shed on our understanding of contemporary capitalism." — Frances Rothstein, Towson State University
