’The editors should be congratulated in producing a volume that goes beyond the traditional boundaries of the subject. . . There is a high standard maintained throughout the handbook with chapters written by 48 authors from across the world. This allows discussion to move away from the traditional US-centric nature of the discipline and gives the book a truly international flavour. The range of scholars, from PhD candidates to established professors makes for an impressive collection, which should be widely read by human resource management and international business academics and practitioners alike.’
