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.
