Introduction to Human Resource Management: A Guide to HR in Practice - Tapa blanda

"This book does a brilliant job in introducing HRM to entry level students. It is pitched at the right level where it helps the reader in understanding the underlying principles and foundations of the many aspects of modern HRM practice. It also balances that by presenting students with up-to-date examples and case studies which deepen their learning and application of the concepts. There is a nice mixture of activities, theory, questions and case studies to provide a multi-layered learning and teaching platform." (Sterling Rauseo, Lecturer in Human Resources and Organizational Behaviour, Business School, University of Greenwich 2018-10-08)

"This text outlines key HR themes through a series of readable chapters, engaging activities and really useful case study examples. I love that the topics draw on academic, practical and professional spheres on the HR world and that there is a focus on how themes link with each other to provide a fuller picture. This produces a book which not only provides a great basic underpinning knowledge but extends learning with self-directed study ideas and review activities." (Dr Frances McGregor, Senior Lecturer in Human Resource Management, Huddersfield Business School 2018-10-17)

"This is a very good introduction to human resource management which is great for entry level students and also a good basic reference for anyone making a career move into the profession or working with HR. The book is ideal for both online/distance learning and classroom-based students as chapters contain a mix of content including factual information, research-based activity, case study examples, reflective statements and ideas for group work. I will definitely recommend this book to undergraduate students." (Karen Trem, Lecturer in People Management, Leadership and Governance, Leeds Beckett University 2018-10-18)

"Holistic, integrated coverage of CIPD standards, particularly for those who want to delve deeper into the wider concepts having an impact on the contemporary HR function.
