Abstract
Since the first Volume of this Bibliography there has been an explosion of literature in all the main areas of business. The researcher and librarian have to be able to uncover specific articles devoted to certain topics. This Bibliography is designed to help. Volume III, in addition to the annotated list of articles as the two previous volumes, contains further features to help the reader. Each entry within has been indexed according to the Fifth Edition of the SCIMP/SCAMP Thesaurus and thus provides a full subject index to facilitate rapid information retrieval. Each article has its own unique number and this is used in both the subject and author index. The first Volume of the Bibliography covered seven journals published by MCB University Press. This Volume now indexes 25 journals, indicating the greater depth, coverage and expansion of the subject areas concerned.

Abstract
This article seeks to assess the likely impact on British managers of the 1975 UK legislation prohibiting sex discrimination, drawing on experience from the United States. It will consider the development of the US law and the effect this has had upon practice in the traditional personnel function. It will review portions of the British Statute and British case law dealing with discrimination in employment. In an attempt to assess the impact upon British practice it will explore the relationship between the UK and the US legislation and evaluate the strengths and weakness of each in its context.
