Review
"This new edition of Strategic Human Resource Management is, in global terms, the best book in the field of strategic HRM I have ever read. I wouldn't have expected less from two of the world's leading HR academics. Randall Schuler and Susan Jackson have done it again, and if there was an Academy Award for HR books internationally, this would be the overall winner by far. It is a must read for those interested in people management." Cary Cooper, Lancaster University Management School

Book Description
The second edition of this popular volume, edited by Randall S. Schuler and Susan E. Jackson, provides management students and senior practitioners with a completely new and updated guide to the latest work in the field. This selection of important and highly readable articles from authors around the world charts key developments that have changed the theory and practice of SHRM over the last six years. Since the first edition in 1999, there have been two major forces at work in the field of HRM and SHRM:- Globalization Globalization has brought an increase in competition worldwide and has made the effective management of people even more important. Newer organizational forms like international joint ventures and international mergers and acquisitions have resulted. Together these have a huge impact on the fields of HRM and SHRM. As a consequence of this, the editors have included: several more articles that discuss international aspects of HRM and SHRM; and that demonstrate the use of HRM and SHRM for global competitive advantage. Knowledge Management Associated with globalization and increased competition, is the need for companies to be more knowledgeable in the dynamics of worldwide competition and labor markets, and to manage knowledge more systematically than ever before. The welcome second edition of Strategic Human Resource Management includes many articles that explore and highlight the new reality of knowledge management and its implications for HRM and SHRM. Once again advanced students and practitioners will both find this an invaluable guide to work at the cutting edge of the discipline.
