An accompanying companion website (www.sagepub.co.uk/wilton) provides you with full-text journal articles, extended case studies, weblinks and a glossary. The website also provides an instructor's manual, PowerPoint slides and a multiple-choice test bank for lecturers.
This book is essential reading for undergraduate, postgraduate and MBA students, as well as those studying for their CIPD qualifications.

"Well-researched, well-written, and is clearly signposted and structured for the reader. The learning objectives at the outset of every chapter act as a clear guide for each topic explored. Additional references and further reading are also offered to the student seeking deeper knowledge. Case studies, throughout the book, bring the HRM theories to life and demonstrably link these with practice. Wilton's book is an extremely useful core text for students of HRM and a welcome addition to HRM resources" - Denise Bagley, Principal Lecturer in Human Resource Management, London South Bank University

'This is an excellent introductory text that goes well beyond most conventional HR texts. Nick Wilton not only successfully outlines the rationale and operation of HRM but adopts a critical perspective on the study and practice of HRM by integrating state of the art academic research with contemporary ''real world'' challenges, debates and practical cases. This text is instructive, engaging and will provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and potential for HR to contribute to both organizational performance and individual well-being' - Dr Timothy Bartram, (Joint) Editor in Chief of the Asia Pacific Journal of Human Resources and Associate Professor, School of Business, La Trobe University, Australia
'This is an excellent textbook that combines research and practice in a very readable and interesting way!
