Review :
"Two leading scholars of public human resource management have assembled an impressive set of authors to address comprehensively the critical developments and issues in the field." -- Frank J. Thompson "Public Human Resource Management covers all the bases. Kearney and Coggburn bring together leading scholars writing, in clear and persuasive ways, on core themes and leading issues in public sector HRM. The leading compendium just got better! An excellent find." -- Evan Berman "Once again Kearney and Cogguburn have assembled a useful reader. The pieces are nicely balanced between providing up-to-date overviews of current debates and providing guidance to practitioners on policy options. Chapters on strategic management, performance, dispute resolution, and labor relations go beyond material in the leading public personnel textbooks." -- Dr. Ellen V. Rubin
