A highly comprehensive yet accessible text which successfully presents a critical evaluation of current developments in the subject. This second edition includes an excellent fresh chapter on strategic HRM.

This book provides the most comprehensive textbook in HRM I have seen so far...it should be a 'must' for every course in HRM in the UK and continental Europe and overseas.
