Organisational Behaviour (Routledge-Noordhoff International Editions) 2nd Edition

For many years, Organisational Behaviour has been the number one introduction into organisational psychology. Alblas and Wijsman offer an inspirational description of the behaviour of people in organisation and offer explanations for these behaviours.

Moreover, the authors indicate how this knowledge can be put to use in managing an organisation. This makes Organisational Behaviour a suitable work for a vast range of courses in higher economic, technical, and social education alike.

The inclusion of newspaper and online articles in this addition clearly illustrates its applicability in practice.

Its clear use of language, comprehensive summaries, case histories with evaluation assignments, and practice tests on the accompanying website make this book a very suitable tool for self-study.

Gert Alblas is an social and organisational psychologist and used to be a university lecturer at the University of Groningen and the open University of the Netherlands. He currently works as a writer. He has written several books on psychology, management, and organisation for Noordhoff Uitgevers.
