Arbitration with Ease
As an novice union represenative I needed some guidance on how to prepare and due arbitrations/grievances. This book has helped me in my first three mediations and now is helping me get ready for my first arbitration case. It gives some excellent insight (e.g. notebook and file box idea). It also helps you in doing your research on questioning, cross examination of your witness. It gives you some questions to ask and not to ask. For an indidvidual or union steward with no background in paralegal or law I would recommend this book to be on the top 3 of your book list to have as a union steward. The author did an excellant job and put it in a way that makes the book user-friendly. Now I have other union stewards coming to me for information on arbitrations. ... Read more

As a descendant of Myra
It's fascinating to re-read my ancestoral history from a historian's perspective.Having heard the "filtered" versions passed down through my family, it was wonderful to get a different account of the events.It's a great read, well put together and was definitely enjoyed!

A Real-life Soap Opera!
Sometimes is the truth is stranger than fiction!This is certainly the case with Notorious Woman:The Celebrated Case of Myra Clark Gaines.This book had everything I wanted -- scandalous family secrets, an heir fighting for legitimacy, a struggle through the courts, even a murder -- AND, it's all true!The author re-tells the drama as it unfolded in the courtroom and lets you come to your own conclusion:Was Myra Clark Gaines the true heir to a New Orleans real estate fortune worth millions?You decide. ...

Make sure you're sent a new edition
Amazon is posting information about the 5th edition. There is a 6th edition (2003) out. Make sure you get the newest one, if that's what you want. No sure why Amazon is doing this: maybe the publisher hasn't sent them up-to-date information. Maybe by the time you read this, they'll have fixed it.

The Place to Start
I manage the labor relations staff of a public employer.This book is on my desk and that of each member of my staff.My first question is commonly, "What does Elkouri say?"That said, it is only a place to start for any experienced practitioner.The editors try very hard, and usually successfully, to be balanced.However, that balance is limiting, and keeping to the Elkouri view severely limits your ability to explore the limits or to develop innovative case theories.You must have it, but you should not rely only on it.

Essential Material for Labor Arbitration
There is no one book in the United States today about labor arbitration that comes close to the exhaustive work done by the Authors in this piece.While it is a bit weak on Public Sector arbitration, it makes up that weakness in its overwhelming research and tenacious review of the trends in arbitration in the public sector.Since most arbitration law derives from National Relations Board actions, my slight complaint is somewhat mitigated.Read more
