The story has been told before, but this account is different. It is told by three people who were part of it, in senior roles, with the opportunity to observe and understand what happened and why. It is not another neat analysis by journalists or academics, using facts in the public domain and fitting them to a theory. The story is a complex one, and the authors' views are not necessarily those held by academics and previous commentators. There is still much that is relevant in a re-telling of the path leading up to this, for economy and society today. 538 System requirements: Adobe Digital editions. 588 0 Print version record. 610 20 British Leyland Motor Corporation. 650 0 Automobile industry and trade|zGreat Britain|xHistory. 650 7 BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Industries / Automobile Industry. |2bisacsh 655 0 Electronic books. 700 1 Seale, Nick,|eillustrator. 700 1 Youngson, Anne,|eauthor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aCarver, Mike.|tBritish Leyland Motor Corporation 1968-2005.|dStroud : The History Press, 2015. |z9780750961448 (pbk.) :|w(StEdALDL)1/3284675 914 frd00009696
