Editorial Review

Review
'This book provides a compassionate understanding of not only the fundamentals and processes of HRD, but
also of the field's contemporary challenges. It offers insights to those who do not fully appreciate the
complexity of HRD and validation for those with a hands-on understanding of the general topics within HRD
- an erudite but easy guide for students as well as practitioners.' - Jeanette Lemmergaard, Associate Professor
of HRM and Head of Department, University of Southern Denmark, Denmark 'I will definitely be
recommending this book. The authors have expert knowledge of the field and skilfully analyse the complex
relationship between HRM and HRD in a way that is rarely explored in other texts. The book offers a
welcome new dimension to the subject and succeeds in integrating theory with a questioning of taken-for-
granted assumptions. This balancing of simplicity with complexity and breath with depth makes an ideal
introductory text for all students studying people management, including executive MBAs.' - Aileen
Lawless, Liverpool Business School, Liverpool John Moores University, UK
