Description - The Structure of British Industry by Peter Johnson
"...as an up-to-date and intelligible account of large areas of British industry as you will find ...It will be a valuable handbook for a variety of users: students and teachers (its primary audience), businessmen or civil servants." - British Business "One of the great strengths of the book is that it is equally applicable as an introduction to more advanced work at a higher level...It captures well the fundamental changes which have taken place in the 1980s and the occasional failure but more often success in adapting to them." - Economics For this new edition, the original 14 contributions have been substantially revised and updated, in the most part by their original authors, and a number of new chapters added on information technology, agriculture and domestic air transport. The book therefore provides an authoritative and unique source of reference on a wide range of British industries.
The sectors covered have been carefully chosen to give a balanced picture (nearly 40 per cent of employees in the country are accounted for), and the overview of declining and expanding, private and nationalized, capital and labour-intensive occupations offers a wide-range of illustrative and case-study material.
