A really useful resource for those within or studying HR. It has such a huge subject area broken down into chapters with manageable chunks and loads of guidance and facts.

I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review from Netgalley.
So, this copy disappeared from my iPad before I could really read it all thoroughly, (I skimmed parts hoping to go back, but couldn't) but what I did read was insightful and interesting. Now, this is a textbook first and foremost, so be prepared for a lot of info thrown at you, and definitely not in a sit down and read it all now kind of way. This would be at home in any course in college, and a good reference for someone trying to learn on their own or brush up on skills. I have been thinking of going back to school and wish I could have kept this to more thoroughly go over to see if this was a trajectory for me.

Will assist in training for an HR post. Invaluable text book, The book is well written and easy to understand.
