Of those, there are very few good ones - and this book is definitely one of them.' Duncan Brown, Assistant Director-General CIPD in People Management Magazine 'This is a comprehensive and reflective volume that should prove to be a valuable information source for teachers, students and practitioners within the HR field.'
