The text offers a thematic approach to International Human Resource Management. Through the use of both academic theory and literature in appropriate depth, the text offers a clear and detailed overview of the International HRM subject area. It includes discussion points, topic review questions, case studies, etc. throughout the book. It is user-friendly with clear signposting; examples of actual practice, through the use of mini-vignettes; exhibits and other supporting material. These features appear as boxed examples, and are integrated into the text. Chapters provide organising frameworks, such as taxonomies, figures and diagrams, to help the reader interpret what is a very wide topic. Each chapter provides a list of appropriate websites/resources that can be accessed for further information. Each chapter opens with learning objectives and closes with sample teaching questions.
