the book successfully delivers on its overarching intention, to provide a ‘snapshot of the field, opening up to ... the reader, opportunities and possibilities for further investigation and research’...the diversity of thought, level of abstraction and sophistication in the arguments presented help to keep the book interesting and can only enrich and encourage further dialogue...the variety of topics dealt with, the different styles and orientations of the authors and its general readability make it highly accessible...The main audiences for this book, in my view, are researchers, postgraduate university students, and lecturers...For researchers and HRD educators already familiar with many aspects of HRD, this book will offer a useful resource that one can come back to and will also surface some interesting ideas to hopefully precipitate an urge to explore further and develop the empirical and theoretical base in the field
