| Summary |
"This fully revised and updated edition of a best-selling textbook continues to provide the most comprehensive European introduction to issues in work and organizational psychology for those with no prior knowledge of the field." "Updating coverage on the core topics of technology, organizations, and human performance, the second edition fully integrates comprehensive accounts of contemporary areas such as strategic management and virtual team-working. With greater emphasis on the application of theory and improved support features such as key studies in the field, research close-ups, discussion points, and three extensive case studies, An Introduction to Work and Organizational Psychology continues to set the standard for European work psychology texts."--BOOK JACKET |
