Educated Workers Are Dangerous


Educated workers are dangerous. They have facts and solid arguments, and that makes it more difficult for the corporate managers and institutional administrators to peddle their bull unopposed in the media. So, keep reading. This week's New York Review of Books looks at three excellent additions to any union resource library. Read the reviews, read the books, and tell it like it is.

The Disposable American: Layoffs and Their Consequences, by Louis Uchitelle. Vintage, 287 pp., $14.95 (paper)

The Great American Jobs Scam, by Greg LeRoy. Berrett-Koehler, 290 pp., $24.95
