The Labour Companion
Prepared by the Committee on Canadian Labour History, publishers of the influential journal Labour/Le Travailleur, this volume is an excellent resource for students of the history of workers in Canada. The compilers described this book as a working bibliography, that is a compilation of scholarship to date in an incredibly active and burgeoning field of study. It includes hundreds of entries for materials printed between 1950 to 1975, arranged alphabetically and fully indexed. The text is illustrated with revealing photographs. First published in 1980, The Labour Companion remains a valuable reference for students of labour's role in Canadian history.

Career Paths of Nursing Professionals
A "snapshot" of key labour force and market issues in the nursing field, the study provides important baseline data from which the impact of present and future public policy trends and changes can be monitored, reviewed, and researched.

Each line of inquiry raises pressing questions about the professional lives of those who work most directly and dynamically with patients but whose careers are being altered, perhaps detrimentally, by reorganization in the Canadian health care system. This book will be of great interest to nursing practitioners, educators and administrators, allied practitioners and policy makers, and social scientists with an interest in the labour market, work, occupations, and professions.
