I was extremly disappointed with this book, i am currently completing a diploma in HRM, and this was a set text so i spent the money; however i used it twice only, and have been trying to sell it for 5 months at the 1/4 of retail and i am still stuck with it. I recommend Stones or Robbins.

This book came very timely and even though was used, was in very good condition. Thank you! Once you have had a bad experience, it feels good to have a good one.

I ended up having to send this book back because it was the incorrect text for my class (they changed it at the very last minute). I want to thank the seller wordhunger2 for being so understanding and allowing me to return it for a nearly full refund.
