It was really interesting. The chapters are designed in a very organised way, so that any introductory person can learn HRM well.
good resource - have used it in our new mba human resource issues module descriptor.
- The concepts of "industrial relations" (or "labour relations") and "employee share ownerhsip" could be added
- References may be more oriented to academic literature sources (guiding students to further readings...)
- There is a slight cultural bias on UK (e.g., CIPD, statutory bodies)
Good for use as initial reference for students
The text provides principles and practice in simple way. This test is good for the beginners in HRM. The content of the text is easy to understand for the Japanese students.
Adequate to supplement the key text
This is an easy-to-use glossary for those studying the basics of HRM.
Comprehensive overview. Good design. Maybe some illustrations/graphics would be helpful.
