How is human resource management (HRM) strategic to a firm's viability and how might it help to lay a basis for sustained competitive advantage? How can managers pursue their goals for labour productivity and organisational flexibility in socially acceptable ways? This book explores such pressing questions. The authors develop an innovative conceptual framework to provide a stimulating exploration of the growing field of Strategic HRM. This text is essential reading for MBA students and advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students of HRM. It is also an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the role of HRM in business success.

Peter Boxall is Professor of Human Resource Management at the School of Management, University of Bath. John Purcell is at the University of Auckland, New Zealand.
Boxall and Purcell truly succeed in merging the fields of strategic management and human resources in this book. This is must reading for those interested in the next generations of HR scholarship.
-Professor Scott Snell, Cornell University
This is exactly the 'Strategic Human Resource Management' I hope the next generation of students and managers learn and practice. Boxall and Purcell provide a solid analysis of current theory and practice and challenge HR professionals to build employment relationships that will contribute to effective and sustainable organizations. These are the expectations HR needs to meet and this text provides the tools needed to do so.
-Professor Thomas A. Kochan, MIT Sloan School of Management
