6th edition
Margaret Foot & Caroline Hook
Introducing Human Resource Management is a lively and engaging introduction to the key topics and issues surrounding people management. Clearly linking HR theory to the work environment, this book explores core areas such as HR strategy, talent management, employee engagement and development.
This new edition has been fully revised to include:
- the latest developments in equality legislation
- greater coverage of the increasingly important concept of well-being and the impact this has on performance
- more emphasis on the crucial role that line managers play in people management
- more international and cross-cultural examples throughout.
This text will help you succeed in your studies through:
- ‘Did you know’ and ‘Pause for thought’ boxes to get you thinking
- ‘What next’ features to encourage you to find out more about a topic
- ‘HR in the news’ features containing articles from the Financial Times to promote discussion of real-life examples of HR in practice.
- Review and self-check questions (with answers) to help you check your understanding of a topic
Introducing Human Resource Management is ideal for a first course in human resource management at undergraduate or professional level, including courses that lead to a CIPD qualification.

With recap questions/excercies throughout and extensive links to further information; books or web sites at the end of each chapter this book is ideal for anyone studying HRM.
overall, ok if you just need to know the hrm basics
Also the textbook was either missing or vague in at least half of the areas our "An introduction to Human Resource Management" course covered so I would highly dis-recommend this textbook for even the most basic of HRM classes.
Listmania!
