Should be titled "Shifts in the employment contract"

this was a good book. It spent most of its time discussing the change in America's workplace and work contract. If you wanted to be a truly devious student, you could just read the first and last chapter, and the conclusion of every chapter. Rubin does a great job summing things up in her conclusions. I suggest this book for proffesors who need a text that very completely describes shifts in America's workplace, and how culture, goverment, and society relate.
