This is one of a several editions that Gomez-Mejia has written. His books are full of good information, solidly written and good for the college student.
As a college instructor I taught from several books and this is one that I did not use, but always wanted to make it one of the next ones because it is incluside covering all of the areas needed and written in a manner that the college student can read and understand.
An excellent read.

I did not read this cover to cover, but the chapters I did read were very informative and not too dry. It seems like a useful reference guide for human resources questions that new managers might have. Since I plan to go into management in the next year or so I intend to keep this textbook for quick advice on legalities and considerations when writing up an employee improvement plan, what to do if employees form a union and how to frame negotiations.
i focus in this book on job evaluation and performance appraisal, it explains in details about organization structure to job analysis. as well as other chapters were focused on techniques for job evaluation and performance appraisal.
