Opis

In this fascinating and well-researched book, Timothy Whisler considers why there are now no major car manufacturers in Britain and makes valuable comparisons with overseas manufacturers operating both in the UK and abroad. This book covers the issues of product development, quality, design, and range and is destined to make a distinctive contribution to our understanding of the performance of UK manufacturers.

Recenzje

This will be a useful work for anyone interested in industrial policy and the dramatically changing post-war economic structure of Britain.
