"""Workers' rights are under attack on every front. Bosses break the law every day. For decades Labor Law for the Rank and Filer has been arming workers with an introduction to their legal rights (and the limited means to enforce them) while reminding everyone that real power comes from workers' solidarity.""--Alexis Buss, former general secretary-treasurer of the IWW ""As valuable to working persons as any hammer, drill, stapler, or copy machine, Labor Law for the Rank and Filer is a damn fine tool empowering workers who struggle to realize their basic dignity in the workplace while living through an era of unchecked corporate greed. Smart, tough, and optimistic, Staughton Lynd and Daniel Gross provide nuts and bolts information to realize on-the-job rights while showing us that another world is not only possible but inevitable."" --John Philo, legal director, Maurice and Jane Sugar Law Center for Economic and Social Justice ""Some things are too important to leave to so called ""experts"" our livelihoods, our dignity and our rights. In this book, Staughton Lynd and Daniel Gross have provided us with a very necessary, empowering, and accessible tool for protecting our own rights as workers."" --Nicole Schulman, coeditor of Wobblies! A Graphic History and World War 3 Illustrated. ""Lynd and Gross are to be commended for developing a useful resource not just for shop stewards, but for every wage-earner engaged in the struggle to improve the condition of working people."" --Gordon Simmons, UE Local 170 ""For those readers who want to strengthen workers rights and improve our overall quality of life, or for those who may see labor organizing as also a strategy to achieve not only the vision of a participatory economy but a participatory society as well then this book should definitely be in your arsenal."" --Michael McGehee, Z Magazine"
