Originally published in 1984, this book is concerned with our everyday behaviour with other people. It examines the nature of social interaction and the resources utilized in our engagement with others, and the ways in which these processes may be controlled and resources improved. Two themes are central to the book. One is the relationship between the intuitive psychology of everybody and the psychology of the professional scientist. The other is the shift in practice from the professional as expert and controller of the therapeutic processes towards self-management by the client. This is an essential guide for both students and professionals, and for anyone who would like to bring their social processes under more control.

Wales has one of the highest concentrations of Japanese manufacturing investment in Europe, with the recent arrival of a Toyota engine plant at Deeside and a Sony television plant at Pencoed. It provides a case study for examining the economic and social impact of this new investment, which is often perceived as being very different from existing foreign investment. This study evaluates this case study, looking at the attraction of Japanese capital to Wales, its impact on the Welsh economy, upon employment, management practice, industrial relations, the community, and upon the Japanese themselves. Finally, the book also considers the future prospects for Japanese investment in Wales, and the likely effects. Jonathon Morris has also published "Japan and the Global Economy" (1991), and "Wales in the 1990s" (1991). Max Munday is the author of "Japanese Manufacturing Investment in Wales since 1972" (1990). Barry Wilkinson's publications include "The Japanisation of British Industry" (1988).

In recent years, widespread organisational change in large corporations has almost invariably led to work intensification and increased stress for managers. Managing in the Modern Corporation explains how and why large companies have changed their organisational structures and philosophies, focusing in particular on how these changes affect the careers of middle managers. Based on in-depth interviews with over two hundred middle and senior managers working in large corporations in the USA, UK and Japan, it shows how the working lives of managers have been subjected to major disruption, involving work intensification and reduced opportunities for career progression. Furthermore, it argues that such widespread overwork and poor treatment of highly skilled and highly motivated staff has created a major international problem that must be addressed. The book presents a range of solutions to this important problem, suggesting that there are possibilities for saner, less brutal organisational environments.
