In what still remains something of a desert, every oasis is to be viewed with relief. In this particular wilderness, however, we also need maps, signposts, and travelers' guides. Michael Gordon and Lowell Turner provide us with a number of original and valuable case studies of union internationalism, and these justify the book's place on the so-far meager collection of such efforts (Carew et. al. 2000, Waterman & Wills 2001 a, b). Nevertheless, the study lacks an editorial orientation sufficiently historical, relevantly theoretical or broad enough in its view of the terrain. Readers are likely to feel themselves better informed, but suspicious they are being left without the necessary large-scale map or trusty compass they need to navigate the field. Allow me to consider what's missing.
