Review:
"Robert Lussier, in collaboration with John Hendon, has taken his inimitable writing style to another level in this text. Even the most mundane of HR topics come to life in this active learning text. A multitude of application and skill building exercises 'bring this book to life' and reinforce student comprehension of the field of Human Resource Management."--Carl Blencke
"An excellent source to curious minds...Covers HR topics thoroughly and engagingly."--Ghadir Ishqaidef
"The Lussier & Hendon text sets a new standard for not only HRM textbooks but for textbooks in general through the exceptional approach and unique layout to demonstrate concepts, applications, and skill developments. It offers an effective way of guiding students from theory to practice and also making the topic easier to teach."--Kern Peng
"Prior to reviewing Human Resource Management (Lussier and Hendon), my students were forced to rely on employment law reference books and my lecture notes in lieu of a traditional HRM textbook. Quite simply, I had given up on finding a human resource management text that was current on employment legislation and on HR trends and issues, while written in a style that engaged the typical undergraduate student. This textbook is the answer to my search for a superior undergraduate HRM text."--Elizabeth Fair
"This text is well written; the content is appropriate for under graduate level students. Each chapter is well organized and supported with exercises, summaries and case studies. In addition, the cost is reasonable for the students."--Eleanore Webster
"Human Resource Management, by Lussier provides a path through the labyrinth of current HR Practices, especially the business component governed by more laws than any other business component."--Harry Whitney
"The application exercises and skills inventories will help equip students for a successful managerial career."--Diane Galbraith
"Well-written, easy to read, and full of practical examples, Lussier and Hendon is a must-read for today's HR student."--Charles Gorman
"This HRM textbook has the best pedagogical features I have ever seen. The pedagogical aids, applications, and skill-building activities make the textbook unique in its ability to promote active learning and skill-building."--Herve Queneau
"Lussier and Hendon's text on Human Resource Management is on the "cutting edge" of twenty first century knowledge for the professional HR executive, management personnel and an owner of a business."--Jerry Sellentin
