Editorial Reviews

Review

"I think this text is easy for someone who has no prior exposure to the field to understand, yet it is still rigorous and informative. The extras, such as the cases, are useful."

"This text is well structured. It covers the most important topics in HR, and the examples and data are right on point." --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent study material, February 24, 1999
By A Customer
This book is excellent for general college level study of the full range of human resources. It is also a great book to review in preparation for the Professional in Human Resources (PHR) or Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR) certification tests given by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).
