4.0 out of 5 stars HRM
Like all of the other Idiots guides, this one breaks things down nicely. My one complaint is that they always seem to go into a bit of detail of the history of a particular topic. In my opinion, this is often unnecessary and I would rather just get to the nuts and bolts of the topic at hand. That is a personal preference, though.

1.0 out of 5 stars Title says it all
Of course the writer gave himself 5 stars!! He isn't a dumm...oops, I mean "Idiot". But I would say the "Dummies HR Kit" book is the same price and comes with a nice CD of useful forms and such and was published in Dec 2006 so it is 5 years newer than this book. Some laws change rapidly in HR and it helps to be up to speed with the latest editions.

1.0 out of 5 stars Shallow coverage of HRM, April 8, 2006
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide(r) to Human Resource Management (Paperback)
I realize that this book is for "Idiots", but come on. Shallow coverage of HRM. I can't believe the author reviewed his own book and gave himself 5 stars. He's not biased at all. Not worth the money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Just for some balance, June 20, 2006
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide(r) to Human Resource Management (Paperback)
Wasn't going to write a review of this, but I felt compelled. The author gave himself 5 stars for a book that I felt was a waste of my money. If you have any higher education or management experience, you need to look elsewhere. If you truly are an "idiot" it might be a good starting point for you. Why would a true idiot need a HRM book, though?
