It goes to the credit of Harzing and Pinnington that the text at no place appears disjointed, although the book has contributions from a large number of authors. The book has a solid research base. It is very comprehensive with a broad and global coverage and provides a detailed overview of main ways that IHRM has been conceptualised and evolved over the years. It has maintained academic rigour and critical focus that have helped the authors to establish its reputation as the one of the most authoritative texts in international human resources management. This book has been very well received by teachers and students the world over.
A comprehensive book on IHRM but sometimes (too) difficult to understand for our students (as English is L2)
This book is compulsory reading in our modules related to International HRM.
The level and complexity of the language used in some of the chapters seems to be a challenge for some of our students (some chapters are more academic in style than others).
The book is very informative and contains lots of practical examples case studies.
Pleased to see new and important revisions from the earlier version of the book
