Reviews

This book is everything that a student of HR could need to successfully complete a research project. Clearly and eloquently written with a wealth of useful real world examples, it walks a new researcher through the entire process and I would not hesitate in recommending this to my students. --Dr. Jill Hanson, Senior Lecturer, Derby Business School, UK


This book is everything that a student of HR could need to successfully complete a research project. Clearly and eloquently written with a wealth of useful real world examples, it walks a new researcher through the entire process and I would not hesitate in recommending this to my students. --Dr. Jill Hanson, Senior Lecturer, Derby Business School, UK The fourth edition of Research Methods in Human Resource Management is a thorough and up-to-date textbook concerning how to plan and carry out major research projects in human resource management - up to, and including dissertations. It is most valuable to those who are newer in their research experience. Equal balance and coverage is given to qualitative and quantitative research methodology. Even though the authors focus particularly on the United Kingdom, this book can and should have international impact. I recommend it highly, and hope that it further strengthens research rigour in HRM and management education. --Jon M. Werner, Professor of Management, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, USA
