Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Lussier's Human Relations in Organizations: Applications and Skill Building employs an applications and skill building approach. It's the most "how to" work with people textbook. This style is perfect for professors that want to incorporate activities and exercises into the classroom, and benefits students who want to understand concepts as well as apply and develop skills that they can use in their daily and professional lives. The text has also been successfully used for online courses. The book and test bank provide a balanced, three-pronged approach: bull; A clear concise understanding of human relations/ organizational behavior concepts; bull; The application of HR/OB concepts for critical thinking in the business world; bull; The development of HR/OB skills.
