Review:

"Compulsory initial reading for students on introductory courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. The fourth edition establishes itself as the benchmark introductory textbook for students of occupational psychology. It’s accessible, scientifically-based and well grounded in theory and practice without ever becoming dry. The case study examples throughout are particularly useful."
Dr Neil Anderson, Professor of Organisational Psychology,
University of Amsterdam

"This is the benchmark text in occupational psychology. Everyone considering a career in this field simply has to read this book prior to starting their course."
Dr Andreas Liefooghe, Lecturer in Organisational Psychology, Birkbeck College, University of London
