Human Resource Management

Human Resource Management, 13th edition provides students in human resource

management courses and practicing managers with a comprehensive review of

essential personnel management concepts and techniques in a highly readable and

understandable form. As this new edition goes to press, I feel even more strongly than

I did when I wrote the first that all managers not just HR managers need a strong

foundation in HR/personnel management concepts and techniques to effectively do

their jobs. Particularly in these difficult economic times, where students want to be

able to apply at work what they learn in class, this edition continues to particularly

focus on practical applications that all managers can use in carrying out their

HR-related responsibilities. If you adopted the previous edition, you will find

transitioning to the 13th edition easy, as the chapter outline (as well as the outline for

each chapter) is more or less the same.
