Media Reviews
Bratton and Gold provide an outstanding introduction to current debates in HRM. The book follows a logical structure, takes a critical approach and enriches this with ample relevant and international examples from industry. A great resource for those who want to study HRM from a critical and international perspective. * Dr Daniel Wintersberger, University of Birmingham, UK *
This is the textbook that I have been wishing for! Bratton and Gold have created an outstanding book in their thorough, insightful and contemporary analysis of human resource management that incorporates theory, evidence and practice. The scope of the text is impressively wide and the depth of its content is excellent. * Associate Professor Angela Knox, University of Sydney, Australia *
This new edition incorporates a truly up-to-date and international perspective in discussing contemporary HRM ideas and trends. The language is professional but "normal" enough for students and practitioners from any place to understand. It is a great book to recommend. * Dr Kuok Kei Law, Open University of Hong Kong, China *
This book is a refreshing read for those interested in HRM. The authors manage to cover the broad spectrum of HR issues, and make it reader-friendly by integrating interesting contemporary cases. * Dr Steven Kilroy, Queen's University Belfast, UK *
Bratton and Gold's text is comprehensive in its coverage of HRM themes but does not sacrifice depth of analysis. More importantly it is a textbook that subjects the HR process to proper critical evaluation in a lucid and engaging fashion. One of the best available HRM textbooks! * Dr Pete Thomas, Lancaster University, UK *
