Author: Buzz Hargrove
Publisher: HarperCollins
Price: $32.99 (Hardcover)
As former national president of the Canadian Auto Workers trade union, Buzz Hargrove witnessed the pattern of poor decision-making that led to the 2008 car industry crumble years in advance. During a time when the manufacturing sector struggles to recover, Hargrove aims to deconstruct the crisis in Laying It On the Line. From insider corporate dealings to the prattle in political backrooms, Hargrove reveals his hand using digestible language. Maintaining his focus on workers rights, Hargrove explores how labour movements must adapt to the new economy and what it will take for Western auto manufacturers to bounce back.
