Summary, etc. This book is the result of a ten-year research<br/>programme launched by the European<br/>Foundation for the Improvement of Living and<br/>Working Conditions, an EC-funded body based<br/>in Dublin. The study looked at the two questions<br/>most often asked by those in the process of<br/>introducing new technology: How can it be most<br/>effectively implemented and how can it be used<br/>to the best advantage in terms of employees,<br/>customers and the public at large?<br/>To answer these questions the researchers<br/>examined the use of new technology in a wide<br/>range of economic activities - from engineering<br/>and other manufacturing through banking and<br/>insurance to retailing and the public sector.<br/>They also looked at the role of new technology in<br/>production, in process operations and in the<br/>office. In doing so, they were concerned not only<br/>with its effects on efficiency and working<br/>practices, but also with its impact on<br/>management, the workforce, the customer and<br/>the consumer of services.<br/>The six major reports which make up the bulk of<br/>the book are the work of distinguished experts<br/>from leading research centres in five community<br/>countries. The conclusion is a summary of the<br/>debates from the Dublin conference organised by<br/>The Foundation to discuss the findings of the<br/>research programme.<br/>Issues considered include:<br/>• Options for the future of work<br/>• Identification of problem areas<br/>• New technology and the quality of<br/>services<br/>Participation<br/>• Shiftwork<br/>• Physical and psychological stress<br/>Together, the reports give an informative<br/>illustration of current thinking on the subject,<br/>and the book as a whole offers an authoritative<br/>account of the diverse and far-reaching<br/>consequences of technological development as<br/>Europe gears up for 1992,
