Looks like it was published by UNC Press 1991. I do remember conversations with him to the effect that Taylorism ab initio was as much ideological in aim as seeking efficiency, but (1) that’s obviously his view (though a considered one after studying the sources) and (2) I don’t have any citations I could give you to support that beyond vaguely recalled conversations after class.
