Reviews

“If you are puzzled about what happened to the 'human' in human resource management, this is the book you need. It offers the perfect combination of conceptual sophistication and practical insight with the narrative zest of a gifted writer who actually cares about what being 'human' in modern organisations truly means.” Steve Linstead, University of York
