Rezensionen

This is a grounded, critical and well thought through introduction to the subject. It is conscious of major debates yet able to explain them in a subtle and meaningful way. The book presents the reader with the tensions and realities of HRM, inviting them to realise the ways in which management is structured in relation to workers. Miguel Martinez Lucio 20160819
