contributors strive to accomplish
two primary objectives: (1) to be
equally balanced and nonpartisan
in their viewpoints, and (2) to
ensure the book is of significant
value to the practitioner,
student, and sophisticated
nonlawyer.

Developing Labor Law; Employment
Discrimination Law; How
Arbitration Works; Discipline and
Discharge in Arbitration; Equal
Employment Law Update;

Laws; The Fair Labor Standards
Act; Employee Benefits Law; The
