Summary:

The Advisory Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS) is arguably the most successful, and certainly the longest-lived, public agency in British post-war industrial relations history. This volume brings together contributions from eminent academics and senior ACAS officials to provide a fascinating account of the agency's achievements, failures, and remarkable survival during a period of political upheaval and dramatic economic and industrial relations change.
