I enthusiastically endorse the fourth edition of IHRM. The editors are to be congratulated for recruiting the top-rated authors in this field to contribute to this volume. The chapters are up to date, insightful, and sometimes even provocative. Students, including post-grads and advanced undergraduates, as well as savvy practitioners, will benefit from reading this volume.

Anne-Wil Harzing and
Ashly Pinnington’s bestselling textbook has guided thousands of students through their International Human Resource Management studies.
The fourth edition retains the critical edge, academic rigour and breadth of coverage which have established this book as the most authoritative text on the market. The new edition by our international team of experts provides an even more stimulating journey through the core curriculum, contemporary debates and emerging issues in IHRM.
New for the fourth edition:
- Reduced number of chapters to allow for greater depth and an improved structure ensuring fundamental topics underpin your knowledge
- Expanded coverage of Equality and Diversity, Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainability and Cross-Cultural Management in line with developments in the field
- New Stop and Reflect feature provides an opportunity to test your understanding at regular intervals
This text comes with access to a companion website containing web links, SAGE journal articles and more.
