Abstract
In the preface to Employment with a Human Face, John Budd explains that his book grew out of efforts to bring added vitality to the teaching of labor relations at the University of Minnesota. The result is a book that may achieve much more. His book points toward the revitalization of teaching, scholarship, and policy analysis in the discipline of industrial relations and human resources (IRHR) and perhaps even to the ultimate objective of John R. Commons—“saving capitalism by making it good.”1
