Revolutionary events require revolutionary ideas. This is the first complete account of the dramatic creation of the Saturn Corporation, General Motors' highly publicized attempt to design a product that could compete in an automobile market dominated by the Japanese. In GM's quest, the union played a tremendously important role in the design, development, and implementation of the Saturn Corporation. A leading representative of the United Auto Workers union and one of the company's 99 founders, Jack O'Toole explains the unique Memorandum of Agreement between the union and Saturn - a model for labor-management relations and codetermination in the 21st century.
