About the Book

The field of Human Resource Development has emerged as one of the most dynamic and multifaceted areas of business and management in recent years. Yet despite the mosaic of topics, debates and approaches, existing textbooks often overlook important emerging topics within the field, and do little justice to the variety of strands involved in the study of HRD.

Human Resource Development: Theory and Practice encourages students and academics out of their comfort zones by offering the first comprehensive overview that encompasses all the constituent components of HRD, allowing the reader to clearly separate concepts within the field and provide a meaningful basis for detailed discussion and debate.

This book serves as a comprehensive introductory text to the field of HRD, as well as an ideal platform for a more in-depth advanced study of the field. It is an invaluable resource for students of HRD, or any reader interested in how HRD can play a major role in oiling the gears of innovation within an organization.

About the Author :
David McGuire is senior lecturer in human resource development at Edinburgh Napier University.

Review :
the book successfully delivers on its overarching intention, to provide a ‘snapshot of the field, opening up to ... the reader, opportunities and possibilities for further investigation and research’...the diversity of thought, level of abstraction and sophistication in the arguments presented help to keep the book interesting and can only enrich and encourage further dialogue...the variety of topics dealt with, the different styles and orientations of the authors and its general readability make it highly accessible...The main audiences for this book, in my view, are researchers, postgraduate university students, and lecturers...For researchers and HRD educators already familiar with many aspects of HRD, this book will offer a useful resource that one can come back to and will also surface some interesting ideas to hopefully precipitate an urge to explore further and develop the empirical and theoretical base in the field
