Böcker av J. Durand

This book is an important and original account of life in the new lean production workplace - the car industry where it all began. This book is neither a retrospective assessment nor a prediction for the future: it reveals what has changed and what has remained the same, in a workplace that remains a major part of the makeup of our society.
