Stuart Jamieson was the author of the first book in English on the subject of Canadian industrial relations, Industrial Relations in Canada, published in 1957. This classic work was concise, clearly written and notable for its analysis of Canadian industrial relations in the broader North American context. These two books were only part of Jamieson's contributions to industrial relations. His dissertation documented the struggle of American (and Canadian) farm workers to achieve representation. Stuart Jamieson taught economics and sociology at University of British Columbia from 1945 until his retirement in 1980.
