""The automotive industry is the backbone of the North American economy, yet it rarely receives serious academic treatment. This book asks and answers essential questions about the industry's impact on labour, the environment, supply chains, investment patterns, trade policy, and technological innovation. Anyone who wants to understand the global economy of the twenty-first century and its prospects should start with this book.""--Christopher Sands, Director of the Canada Institute at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and the Hopkins Center for Canadian Studies, Johns Hopkins University ""This book is a comprehensive and insightful analysis of recent history of the North American auto industry. Its arguments and data will appeal to policy-makers and academics alike. I expect it to be a key reference as the USMCA treaty comes up for review in 2026.""--Susan Helper, Frank Tracy Carlton Professor of Economics at the Weatherhead School of Management, Case Western Reserve University
