The editors focus on substantial professional and academic studies of labor arbitration in the United States and Canada, drawing material from books, monographs, analytical articles in professional and academic journals, and selections from the proceedings of the meetings of academic and professional societies.

A large section of the book deals with employment arbitration and matters such as wrongful discharge. Coverage of arbitration outside North America is also expanded in the current volume, which is based upon computer searches of the most widely used data bases and on cover-to-cover searches of the twenty leading journals in the field.

Following a substantial chapter summarizing the principal court cases in the US, organization is in two sections: books and monographs, and articles and proceedings. The subjects of grievance mediation and fact-finding are included in the bibliography due to their close relationship to mediation. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
