Reviews

'This book provides a fascinating description of how fairness in employment plays out across 23 countries. The chapters illuminate the cultural context, legal considerations, and psychometric analyses required to ensure fairness. The reader is left with a deep understanding of the similarities and differences across the diverse countries.' Fritz Drasgow, Professor of Psychology and Dean Emeritus, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign 'Given fast-paced shifts in the global sociopolitical context, this volume by leading experts on reducing unfairness in employment could not be more timely. Those seeking to think more expansively about bias will uncover many insights from this examination of how unfairness is defined and considered in 23 different countries. For those engaged in talent acquisition practice across borders, this handbook will be an exceptional resource.' Ann Marie Ryan, Professor Emerita of Organizational Psychology, Michigan State University
