Reviews

`[My students] found it very readable and loved the running case study, which made it more interesting for them. They liked the balance of theory and real life case studies/references. They felt they had purchased a text which was worthwhile and helpful to them.'
Dawn Williams, University of Westminster
`A very thorough and engaging book which from the first page acknowledges that OB covers a range of issues across a number of disciplines. I particularly liked Chapter One as it introduces the background to OB and how students need to start thinking critically. I also like the way each chapter identifies the main theorists and applies these theories in context.'
Alison Mackiewicz, Aberystwyth University
`A good introductory level OB book which has a good coverage of OB and Management topics but is presented in a clear way to give the students an understanding of the key topics whilst also introducing them to critical perspectives and wider social/political issues.'
Teresa Oultram, Keele University
