Reviews
"The editors of, and many of the contributors to, the proposed text are internationally known and I have no concern about the quality of the contents of the book. The subject area is important and will continue to be so for many years ahead. The text will be a useful addition to the literature for courses on change management or occupational stress." Howard Kahn, Heriot University

"The range of chapters and authors is impressive. It is particularly good to see authors from several continents included, as befits a text on such global issues. There is also a good balance between case studies, large scale studies, comparative data and theory building... A book that offers guidelines on good practice is always alluring and I believe that this will make it very attractive to managers as well as management students. Overall this would be a very useful book and a leader in a field of growing contemporary and global relevance." Sue Lewis, Manchester Metropolitan University

"This volume proposes to cover three highly topical issues...it will be a timely collection..." Dale Zand, NYU

"... a thought-provoking and worthwhile book that attempts, through empirical investigation and reflection, to shed light on some of the most serious and worrying employment trends of our time. Its beauty is in its injection of realism, which serves as a refreshing if disturbing antidote to the overly simplistic and optimistic prescriptions found in traditional management/MBA texts." Times Higher Education Supplement
