Written by a team at De Montfort University, Leicester, the book offers an overview of this complex subject area in both a UK and international context.

Each chapter contains objectives, exercises, mini-cases, discussion questions and references to further reading. At the end of each part there is a more detailed case study. Key features: each chapter contains objectives, cases, summaries, exercises, tasks, self-checks, discussion questions and references for further reading; progresses the debate on HRM versus personnel management, and areas of current and future development for the discipline; reference is made throughout the text to European and international issues.
