`The case studies in this book are wide and varied, and together comprise a fascinating picture of HRM in practice. There is a need to understand HRM techniques as they have been and are being applied... these essays will help that process of understanding' - John Monks (from the Preface)

`This book offers some interesting and challenging thoughts on the effectiveness of HRM...an interesting introduction to HRM students hoping to aquire knowledge' - International Journal of Selection and Assessment
