 HRM REVIEW, 2008-06-18
To date, I have never received this book. I am in fact waiting on my refund from Amazon. I had to go buy this book at my school book store spending twice as much. The seller assured me that it had been sent, but I never received it. When I tried to contact seller for a current status, I have received no communication to date. I would not recommend this seller.

 Best In Breed, 2004-10-08
This book's content and support is, unquestionably, the best available today. I've used it to support teaching HR Management to graduate students and have been pleased to see how much my students derive from it.
HOWEVER...
Very recently, some of the "free" support my students were able to use has been converted to "a la carte," pay as you go services.
This was a huge disappointment to me and my students, who had to pay an outrageous $130 for a textbook.
I used to feel justified supporting that price because of the auxiliary content with which it was bundled. But not any more. I would urge Dr. Dessler and his team to restore the "extras" that added so much value to the work.
That carping done, he and his group have done a first-rate job on this one, and I'm eargerly looking forward to the new effort.

Dessler Knows the Field, 2000-09-19
Dessler's approach in Human Resource Management is thorough, comprehensive, contemporary, and very readable. The figures, tables, and other visuals are excellent for models and practical use. The cases and application exercises are relevant to the real world and greatly assist in the overall understanding of the main concepts of each chapter. Chapters on employee testing and selection, appraising performance, job analysis, and personnnel planning and recruiting, are particularly well presented. The complexities of establishing pay plans and financial incentives are explained in simple terms for the reader and include revelant examples. The text also comes with supplementary materials which greatly enhance it's use and application. This book can be used for lower as well as upper division courses at the University or College level.

Substantive yet Simple, 2000-04-16
I found the book indeed a must for "managers". It is essentials-full and highly concise, a product of many years of thought. If not for some minor spelling errors, the book would have been near to perfection.
