Editorial Reviews
Review
"All in all this is a useful addition to the literature that offers insights into the how's, why's, and so what's of the changing work world. While this volume is probably best suited as atext for undergraduate or graduate students of the organizational behaviour, both researchers in the field and human resources professionals will find it interesting and replete with practical suggestions. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections." Choice, October 2002.

This Companion volume looks at the changing conditions of work and the challenges these pose for workers.
Containing fourteen chapters by a well-known team of contributors from North America and Europe, the text provides a powerful combination of up-to-date research and practice. The issues covered are highly topical, including work-family concerns, teleworking, outsourcing and flexible work hours, but are also areas of ongoing concern for both workers and organizations.
Contributors include Douglas T. Hall (Boston University); Edward E. Lawler III (University of Southern California); Daniel C. Fieldman (University of South Carolina); Romila Singh (Drexel University); Wayne F. Cascio (University of Denver at Colorado); Mary Dean Lee (McGill University).
