Description
Book SynopsisBig Steel examines trade, competition, and survival in a key industry under globalizing pressures.
Trade Review"Big Steel explores an industry that has been in near continual transformation for a generation or more and captures the shape and structure of these changes. Perhaps even more significantly, it makes the case that developments in the new millennium denote a new phase in the global steel business, which portends even more dramatic changes of behaviour and performance... It will make a substantial contribution to scholarship. - Peter Clancy, author of Micro-Politics and Canadian Business: Paper, Steel and the Airlines"
