Wayne Cascio's Managing Human Resources, 9e is perfect for the general management student whose job inevitably will involve responsibility for managing people. It explicitly links the relationship between productivity, quality of work life, and profits to various human resource management activities and as such, strengthens the students' perception of human resource management as an important function, which affects individuals, organizations, and society. It is research-based and contains strong links to the applicability of this research to real business situations.

Bought this book for one of my classes, when I got it I was nervous it would be different from the US edition. All my worries were put to rest because this book worked perfect with my class. No complications at all with page numbers or problems.
The book itself has all the necessary information, although proof reading and editing could eliminate some typos and redundant sentence pieces. Unfortunately the binding was nearly off the book when it was received. As securely as the book was wrapped, I do not think this could have happened in shipment.
This book helps you to understand the importance of Human resources and how to manage them. It has helped me in our deevlopment of our own store and my masters studies.
