This book links together aspects of HRM with key concepts around
organisations; not many IHRM textbooks currently on the market
start from these 'basics', hence students find them difficult to
read and comprehend. Crawley, Swailes and Walsh bring together
everything that a student needs to know to get a complete picture
of this area. * Dr. Francesca Andreescu, Senior Lecturer in Human
Resource Management and Organisational Behaviour, Westminster
Business School *
The examples used are up-to-date and are contextualised in a wide
range of country contexts; this is really important given the
cultural diversity of today's student cohorts. The book combines
traditional and international aspects of the topic area, negating
the need for more than one 'core' text. * Lynne Powell, Senior
Lecturer and Programme Leader, Newcastle Business School *
I especially like the book's coverage of both macro and micro
aspects, and the chapter on the dark-side - which is increasingly
relevant nowadays. This is a reader-friendly text which is
particularly suitable for overseas students. * Dr Hammad Akbar,
Lecturer in Management and Course Director, MSc in International
Human Resource Management, Norwich Business School *
