The combination of case studies and discussion of theoretical issues is well structured and provides the reader with a good framework for further reading’ – Leadership and Organization Development The successful Organizing and Organizations is well liked by students and lecturers for its accessible, conversational tone and insightful real-life examples that introduce the study of organizations and organizational behaviour.

Different from other textbooks, Fineman, Gabriel and Sims offer a wide breadth of key concepts, research and literature, with up to date and expansive case studies and examples. Challenging, real life, scenarios are presented; readers are encouraged to use them to produce their own approaches to organizational problems. The text integrates a strong critical approach throughout, and provides students with an expansive glossary of key terms. Throughout, the book’s clear structure and informal delivery support its readability. This Fourth Edition has been fully developed to include: • stronger theoretical links and references throughout the chapters • expanded ‘reading on’ sections relating to writers and key themes in each field • direct and free links to relevant online journal articles • expanded content on organizational misbehaviour and on power • critical review questions at the end of each chapter to encourage debate.

A Very Short Fairly Interesting and Reasonably Cheap Book About Studying Organizations Second Edition Christopher Grey University of Warwick ‘A highly entertaining polemic … this slim volume more than lives up to its title’ – Stefan Stern, Financial Times ‘Indispensable and subversive’ – Simon Caulkin, The Observer The First Edition of Chris Grey’s book broke traditional boundaries and became a book with which management students simply fell in love. This bestselling book, which can be used as a primer on just about any course on organizations and management, is now fully updated to include a new chapter linking the study of organizations with the crazy world of a ‘fast capitalism’ which takes us further and further from ‘the good life’. Christopher Grey shows that if we are serious about studying organizations we have to understand the world, and that if we want to achieve any kind of good life we will need to ditch the conventional managerial understandings which business schools force feed their students.

Organizational Behaviour \ Organization Studies

New Directions in Organizational Behavior Four-Volume Set Edited by Cary L Cooper Lancaster University ‘The last 50 years have seen enormous changes in the developed world, and particularly in the workplace in organizations. In the 1960s, Prime Minister Harold Wilson in the UK talked about the “white of technology” transforming our lives, producing the 20-hour week by the year 2000! New technology was going to be responsible for a “leisure age” allowing us to pursue our dreams, even midweek’ – From the Introduction New Directions in Organizational Behaviour highlights the current studies and theories in the field of organizational behaviour reflecting the developments of the last 10 years. Following five overarching themes – the individual; individual and group interface in organizations; macro-organizational issues; organizational theories; and strategy and methodologies in organizational behaviour – this collection explores the literature on state-of-the-art science and practice of organizational behaviour. Cary L Cooper used a distinguished editorial board in this field to help him in the selection process: Neal Ashkanasy, Arthur G Bedian, Arthur Brief, Stewart Clegg, Tom Cummings, Boris Kabanoff, Gary Latham, Fred Luthans, Jone L Pearce, J Quick, Arie Shirom, Randall S Shuler, Paul Sparrow and Paul Spector.

The SAGE Handbook of Organizational Institutionalism Edited by Royston Greenwood University of Alberta, Christine Oliver York University, Toronto, Roy Suddaby University of Alberta and Kerstin Sahlin-Andersson Uppsala University ‘This superb volume is unique in both the thoroughness of coverage of the field of institutional theory as well as the outstanding quality of its contributions’ – Danny Miller, HEC Montreal This handbook will change how researchers, teachers and advanced students think about organizational institutionalism. Institutional theory lies at the heart of organizational theory yet, until now, no book has successfully taken stock of this important and wide-ranging theoretical perspective. With insight and clarity, the editors have collected and arranged papers so readers are provided with a map of the field and pointed in the direction of new and emerging themes. The academics who have contributed to this handbook are respected internationally and represent a cross-section of expert organization theorists, sociologists and political scientists. Chapters are a rich mix of theory, institutional organizational analysis and empirical work.

Managerial Psychology Three-Volume Set Edited by Yochanan Altman London Metropolitan University, Frank Bournois University of Paris and David M Boje University of New Mexico Compiled by three leading authorities on managerial psychology, this collection of seminal works in the field delineates the boundaries of a vibrant and multidisplinary subject area. With benchmark and cutting-edge articles, this collection is the first of its kind to draw together the work of leading academic writers in managerial psychology. Its audience will bridge two major academic communities: management scholars and psychology scholars. Volume One: Individual Perspectives Volume Two: Group and Meso-Level Perspective Volume Three: Organizational and Macro-Level Perspectives SAGE Library in Business and Management 2008 • 1280 pages Cloth (978-1-4129-4490-8) • £425.00

In the 20 years since its first publication, Images of Organization has become a classic in the canon of management literature. The book is based on a very simple premise: that all theories of organization and management are based on implicit images or metaphors that lead us to see, understand and manage organizations in distinctive yet partial ways. Gareth Morgan provides a rich and comprehensive resource for exploring the complexity of modern organizations internationally: he translates leading-edge theory into leading-edge practice. All references have been revised and tables updated and the author’s new preface situates this classic theory in today’s business environment. To aid classroom teaching a CD-ROM containing resources for lecturers is available with the Updated Edition.

Contents PART ONE: AN OVERVIEW \ PART TWO: SOME IMAGES OF ORGANIZATION \ Mechanization Takes Command \ Organizations as Machines \ Nature Intervenes \ Organizations as Organisms \ Learning and Self-Organization \ Organizations as Brains \ Creating Social Reality \ Organizations as Cultures \ Interests, Conflict and Power \ Organizations as Political Systems \ Exploring Plato’s Cave \ Organizations as Psychic Prisons \ Unfolding Logics of Change \ Organizations as Flux and Transformation \ The Ugly Face \ Organizations as Instruments of Dominatio \ The Challenge of Metaphor \ PART THREE: IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE \ Reading and Shaping Organizational Life 2006 • 520 pages Paper (978-1-4129-3979-9) • £29.99

Organization Development

Understanding Corporate Life

The Process of Leading Organizational Change

Edited by The Warwick Organization Theory Network

Donald L Anderson University of Denver

We live in a society dominated by corporations. Whether working for one or pursuing leisure activities run by one, corporations have come to resonate through every aspect of our lives. Bringing to the fore contemporary and contested themes and issues about corporate life, leading scholars demonstrate how these have been contextualized and theorized within writing and research. Each chapter supports the reader with an introduction and summary, review of the relevant literature and research, and a critique of how the theme under discussion fits into the bigger picture presented by the book.

Organizational Development covers the latest research in organizational development interventions and the consulting process. It differs from current texts available by including more case studies and exercises for students to use in applying theoretical material to practical situtuations. This additional material makes the text more relevent and offers instructors the ability to use one volume instead of placing materials on reserve or asking students to purchase multiple texts.

Contents What Is Organization Development? \ History of Organization Development \ Core Values and Ethics of Organization Development \ Foundations of Organizational Change \ The Organization Development Practitioner and the Consulting Process \ Entry and Contracting \ Data Gathering \ Diagnosis and Feedback \ An Introduction to Interventions \ Individual Interventions \ Team Interventions \ Whole Organization and Multiple Organization Interventions \ Sustaining Change, Evaluating and Ending an Engagement \ The Future of Organization Development

Understanding Gender and Organizations

Second Edition

Power is arguably one of the key concepts within the social sciences. The SAGE Handbook of Power is the first touchstone for any student or researcher wishing to initiate themselves in the state of the art. Internationally renowned authors, Stewart R Clegg and Mark Haugaard have joined forces to select a collection of papers written by scholars with global reputations for excellence. These papers bridge different conceptual and theoretical positions and draw on many disciplines, including politics, sociology and cultural studies. The sweep and richness of the resulting handbook will help readers contextualize and develop their understanding of this dynamic and important subject area.

Mats Alvesson University of Lund and Yvonne Due Billing University of Gothenburg In the decade since the First Edition of this critical and provocative text, many aspects of gender and organizations have changed. Yet in many workplaces gaps in promotion and pay remain high. Gender complexities in organizations have increased and call for sophisticated and nuanced understandings. This new edition is an eagerly awaited update to an essential text in a dynamic and expanding field of inquiry, incorporating new, international perspectives that engage with recent theory and debate. Alvesson and Billing have also added a new chapter on gender and identity.

Theories of Organization Henry L Tosi University of Florida Many students have learned about the theories of organization, not by reading the original works, but by reading discussions of theories in textbooks. This sets the theories in context and provides some useful and important information, but those who take this approach to learning fail to see the more complete underlying theoretical structures, which are set forth clearly in Henry L Tosi’s Theories of Organization

Culture’s Consequences Comparing Values, Behaviors, Institutions and Organizations Across Nations Second Edition Geert Hofstede Institute for Research on Intercultural Co-Operation The Second Edition of this true classic is thoroughly updated with an expanded coverage and scope. It explores the differences in thinking and social action that exist between members of more than 50 modern nations and is the new benchmark for scholars and professionals for years to come. It argues that people carry ‘mental programmes’ which are developed in the family in early childhood and reinforced in school and organizations, and that these mental programmes contain a component of national culture. They are most clearly expressed in the different values that predominate among people from different countries.

The SAGE Handbook of New Approaches in Management and Organization Edited by Daved Barry University Nova, Lisbon and Hans Hansen Texas Tech University Ten years ago, critical theory and postmodernism were considered new and emerging theories in business and management. What will be the next new important theories to shape the field? In one edited volume, Daved Barry and Hans Hansen have commissioned new chapters that will allow readers to stay one step ahead of the latest thinking. Contributors draw on research and practice to introduce ideas that are considered ‘fringe’ and controversial today, but may be key theoretical contributions tomorrow. Each chapter sets these ideas in their historical context, lays out the key theoretical positions taken by each new approach and makes it clear why these approaches are different to more mainstream concepts. Throughout, contributors refer to existing studies that show how these developing themes will change the business and management arena.

International Human Resource Management Four-Volume Set Edited by Pawan Budhwar Aston University, Randall S Schuler Rutgers University and Paul R Sparrow Lancaster University Management School Over the last two decades, international human resource management (IHRM) has evolved into an important field of research, teaching and practice. Until recently the focus of IHRM was on how to best manage human resources (HR) in the multinational enterprise; however, IHRM has now evolved to incorporate two more perspectives, cross-cultural HRM and comparative HRM. Significant developments are taking place in the corporate world which have serious implications for IHRM. These include globalization, increasing foreign direct investments into emerging markets, growing intensity of cross-border alliances, growth of multinationals from emerging markets (such as China and India), increasing movement of people around the globe and an increasing trend in business process outsourcing to new economies. This emerging global economic scenario is creating immense opportunities for IHRM students and researchers. International Human Resource Management brings together articles which highlight the historical evolution of IHRM, discuss the contemporary issues and make projections for further developments in the field.

Fundamentals of Organization Development Four-Volume Set Edited by David Coghlan Trinity College University of Dublin, and Abraham B Shani California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo This collection brings together, for the first time, a diverse range of papers in the field of organization development, serving as the first point of reference for practitioners and academics alike. Adopting a critical perspective, the pre-eminent editors have brought acknowledged 20th century milestones together with modern classics from the founders of this core theoretical area of organization studies, as well as other largely unacknowledged and difficult-to-find highlights – a renewed focus on which will help redefine an understanding of the field. Volume One: Understanding and Researching in Organization Development Volume Two: Pillars of Organization Development Volume Three: Organization Development Interventions Volume Four: Emerging Issues and Challenges

Human Resource Information Systems

Applied Human Resource Management

Basics, Applications, and Future Directions

Kenneth M York Oakland University

Michael J Kavanagh University of Albany and Mohan Thite Griffith University Human resource information systems (HRIS) has become a crucial area of attention for management professionals. A major challenge in teaching the course is its cross-disciplinary nature. Human resources (HR) students find it difficult to grasp the IT/IS side of the subject and vice versa. To overcome the technical nature of most of the books in the market Human Resource Information Systems has a balanced approach in dealing with HR and IT/IS issues by drawing from experts in both areas. Rather than depending on expensive commercial software products to demonstrate the applications of HRIS, this book uses case studies at the end of most chapters to facilitate discussions and link them to managerial and technical problems in HRIS.

Applied Human Resource Management is designed to give business students in-depth, hands-on learning experiences that will help them practice the principles they are learning and develop the skills necessary when dealing with people in diverse settings and situations. The text: • covers critical issues in the effective management of human resources, which can be used for class discussions, or be given as homework problems, or used as essay questions on tests • presents students with a situation where they can apply an human resource management concept or principle to a new situation, which can be used as in-class exercises, or for self-study • provides experiential exercises, giving students an opportunity to learn by doing, which can be used, again, as in-class or out-of-class exercises

Human Resource Management and Development

Employee Selection and Performance Management Three-Volume Set Edited by Neil Anderson University of Amsterdam Business School and Ute Hülsheger Maastricht University Employee selection, assessment and performance management/ appraisal have grown immeasurably in importance in the last two decades, both as areas of scientific enquiry and as professional human resource practice. Not surprisingly, employee selection and performance management (ESPM) literatures are highly disparate, international in orientation, multilevel in their foci ranging from the individual to the workgroup to the whole organization, and dual-focused in terms of their dominant attention to either more fundamental research issues or more pragmatic issues of best practice in ESPM. This major work brings together, in three volumes, the seminal papers in ESPM and creates a single collection of keynote papers spanning both research and practice. The three-volume set comprehensively covers the scope of ESPM as a discipline and reflects its historical development and spread from its roots in the United States.

Edited by Derek S Pugh and David Mayle both at The Open University

Gill Robinson Hickman University of Richmond, Virginia

A prime task of the manager is how to manage change effectively in such turbulent environments. Change management is, therefore, a topic that has generated considerable writing. This set of volumes provides a carefully selected comprehensive collection of well-regarded, seminal articles on this subject. This collection is divided into eight parts: Part One: The Imperatives for Change Part Two: Early Writing on Change Part Three: The Human Relations School Part Four: The Systems Approach Part Five: Strategy Part Six: Leadership Part Seven: Improvement and Innovation Part Eight: Critical Approaches

This book brings together leadership and change concepts and practices that affect leading change in five contexts – organizational, community, political, social change, and global. Key features of the text include: a consistent framework throughout for understanding and applying concepts and practices of leading change; each chapter begins with a vignette about real-life situations that provide examples of leading change in each context; and application and reflection exercises allow readers to apply the information they learn.

‘Many books on management are sanitized, cleanly technical accounts of the unreality of managerial life and work. Politics hardly feature. This book tells it like it is: it dishes the dirt, gets low-down, into the funky and fascinating politics of organizational life’ – Stewart R Clegg, University of Technology, Sydney Combining a practical and theoretical guide to the politics of organizational change, this book provides an exceptional resource to students of change management and organizational behaviour. This edition includes: a new chapter on gender in approaches to organization politics; a full range of teaching materials including case studies, incident reports, self-assessments, and more; each chapter recommends a feature film (or DVD) to illustrate aspects of organization politics; fresh research evidence; recent literature on the nature of entrepreneurial politics; and a model of political expertise, and how that can be developed .

Guiding readers through the technological, organizational and peopleoriented strategies that managers use to implement change, the Third Edition has been revised to cover power, politics, culture and gender. The authors have also added international case studies that set change management within the context of globalization. The text: provides readers with frameworks for applying different models of change to different scenarios; offers proactive approaches to change that relate to business performance; and gives practical, step-by-step guidance on handling change.

Coaching and Mentoring

Introduction to Leadership

Theory and Practice

Concepts and Practice

Bob Garvey, Paul Stokes and David Megginson all at Sheffield Hallam University

Peter G Northouse Western Michigan University

Coaching and mentoring are fast becoming essential aspects of modern managerial practice. And with this growth comes an increasing number of students embarking on mentoring and coaching courses. The authors have provided the first authoritative text with a comprehensive overview and critical grounding in the key concepts, models and research studies in coaching and mentoring. This volume is an essential guide to develop a critical and contemporary understanding of this field. The authors of Coaching and Mentoring are well respected and trusted scholars in the field. They answer important questions such as ‘What does coaching and mentoring involve?’, ‘What is its value?’ and ‘How can the added value of mentoring and coaching be demonstrated?’ Examples are drawn from a variety of sectors, including private businesses, public and voluntary organizations and schools. Contemporary debates are explained and chapters include features such as case studies, research questions and helpful tips to support the reader. To gain a wider perspective, there is a chapter which provides critical comment on the state of the art in the US. The final chapter offers the first attempt at developing a unified theory of coaching and mentoring by drawing on their respective antecedents.

Most textbooks used for teaching leadership are oriented toward the upper-level student and have a strong theoretical orientation. To date, there are very few basic, practical, introductory leadership textbooks. Introduction to Leadership presents in a clear and straightforward way the basic principles of leadership in an attempt to help the reader answer the question: `How can I become a better leader?’. While it is based on theory, the book provides a practical perspective on leadership.

Transformative Leadership in the Human Services Why ‘The Glass is Always Full’ Steve Burghardt and Willie Tolliver both at Hunter College This is a unique book that conveys the challenges in human service agencies via two stories of non-profit organizations. One is constantly dealing with one crisis after another and is usually in a reactive mode. The second story tells of an organization that is run as a learning organization and thus is more effective in running efficiently, as it is in a constant state of evaluating and learning from its mistakes. At the end of each chapter are reflective questions and finally after both stories are two theoretical models that help explain what is happening in these organizations.

Fundamentals of Business Strategy

Corporate Strategy

Six-Volume Set

Three-Volume Set

Edited by Mie Augier Stanford University and David J Teece University of California, Berkeley This collection of selected papers provides a range of fundamental readings in strategic management. The collection covers basic and advanced topics and includes selections from both traditional masters in the field as well as writings by contemporary authors. This six-volume set is divided into four parts: Part One: Foundations of Business Strategy: contains the classical foundational texts (from scholars such as Herbert Simon, Alfred Chandler and Alfred Sloan) which helped create the field. Part Two: Industry Analysis and Competitive Strategy: covers the key texts in the areas of industry analysis and competitive strategy (with contributions by Porter, Nalebuf, Ghemewhat and others). Part Three: The Resource Competences-Based Approach to Strategy: highlights contributions to the resources-based view (including key articles from Richard Rumelt, Jay Barney and others). Part Four: Dynamic Capabilities Approach: addresses dynamic capability theory (with contributors such as Sidney Winter, Richard Rumelt, David Teece and others), covering areas such as organizational learning, entrepreneurship and future directions for strategic management. Each volume contains an introduction to the content included.

Strategy has become an increasingly difficult task in light of rapid technological change and globalization trends during the last two decades. Corporate strategy focuses on the multi-business firm with competitive positions in a broad range of industries, geographical areas and value-chain activities. Corporate strategy is, therefore, not only the domain of the chief executive officer or chief strategist. It is also the domain of marketing, finance, production and human resource management which support and promote the firm’s overall strategic direction. This major work deals with the theory of the management of the multibusiness or diversified firm. It focuses on corporate-level strategy issues such as: the structural analysis of industries and the determinants of competition; models of portfolio analysis; determination of firm scale and scope; diversification and performance; vertical integration; global integration; structure and control; and organizational leadership. Volume One examines how organizations create competitive advantage at the corporate level. Volume Two collects together literature on firm scope, diversification and vertical integration. Volume Three looks at growth and control in multidivisional firms. SAGE Library in Business and Management

Mergers and Acquisitions

Strategy and Globalization

Three-Volume Set Edited by Jeffrey A Krug Virginia Commonwealth University Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) play a major role in shaping business activities worldwide and, consequently, is a widely researched area within the field of business and management. It is also a multidisciplinary area, with very few topics cutting across so many different functional areas of business or generating interest across such a wide range of groups as this one. This three-volume major work critically examines the research on the ‘soft side’ of mergers and acquisitions, that is strategy and organizational issues. The three volumes cover the following topics: Volume One: Mergers and Acquisitions: merger trends; corporate strategy and M&A; merger types; theoretical explanations for M&A. Volume Two: The M&A Process: acquisition analysis; negotiation process; decision making processes; stakeholder effects of M&A. Volume Three: Integration, Governance and Performance: corporate governance; integration capabilities; value creation.

Business-to-Business Marketing

Readership

Is there really a difference between business-to-business marketing and consumer marketing? This book helps students answer this question by examining views that argue business-to-business marketing is simply a variant of consumer marketing or is only concerned with inter-organizational relationship management. Written from a European perspective and recognizing that organizational markets can be very different, the ideas and examples used in this book are based on the latest research and scholarship.

Critical Marketing Studies Three-Volume Set

Edited by Stanley J Shapiro Simon Fraser University, Mark Tadajewski University of Leicester and Clifford J Shultz Arizona State University The macro side of marketing takes the subject beyond the realm of commerce and into the wider societal context, looking at the marketing process in its entirety. The study of macromarketing, with its focus on how marketing and society inform each other, is increasingly seen as the fastest growing direction in marketing education. This four-volume set takes on these questions from every angle, and to date is the only authoritative collection of the most important writing published in the field. It surveys the history of the discipline, before pushing the boundaries of macromarketing scholarship with work on contemporary topics such as Islamic marketing ethics, pharmaceutical marketing, the Fair Trade movement, and the role of marketing in the developing world. In addition, the broad intellectual interests of the international editorial board incorporate papers of cross-disciplinary influence that might not be on the radar of marketing academics. Volume One: The Domain of Macromarketing; The Intellectual Roots of Contemporary Macromarketing; Perceptions of the Market; Marketing Systems; Marketing Externalities Volume Two: Society’s Impact on Markets and Marketing Systems; Marketing Ethics; Distributive Justice; Quality of Life; Toward Socioeconomic Development Volume Three: Controversies in Development; Transition Economies and Macromarketing Volume Four: Marketing and Development; Marketing and Societal Development; Fair Shares and Equal Sacrifice?

Edited by Mark Tadajewski University of Leicester and Pauline Maclaran Royal Holloway, University of London This major reference collection, Critical Marketing Studies, directs its attention to highlighting how marketing as academic discipline and practical endeavour have developed and continue to change. Volume One provides the basis from which more critical marketing studies can be introduced and focuses on the ‘broadening of marketing’ from its initial focus on business and market exchange, towards the promotion of social and societal wellbeing. Volume Two offers contemporary criticism of marketing and consumption, specifically how marketing and advertising allegedly contribute to the production and stimulation of consumer needs, wants and desires. Volume Three takes the concerns and issues outlined in the previous two volumes one step further, highlighting how marketing practice and the ‘political economy of social choice’ are shaped at levels beyond the control of individual actors.

debates in Brand Management Four-Volume Set Edited by Francesca Dall’Olmo Riley Kingston University Branding is one of the most important, and arguably the most visible, manifestations of ‘marketing’. Brands are not just important for identifying products, they also add greatly to the value of companies and they are fiercely protected by the companies they represent. How do brands happen? How are brands defined? How is brand equity measured and accounted for? How has globalization and the move towards no-name or generic brands affected the strength of existing brands? How are brands managed? How do brands re-brand themselves as corporately responsible and ethical? What are brand alliances and how are they changing the way brands are marketed? Debates in Brand Management addresses all these issues and more. Overall, this four-volume set provides a comprehensive overview of brand management literature, documenting the persisting theoretical debates, current challenges and the consequent literature development. This set also includes of a variety of perspectives on brand management originating from European and Australasian, as well as American researchers.

Crisis Management in the New Strategy Landscape William Crandall, John A Parnell and John E Spillan all at University of North Carolina Crisis management is often viewed as a short-term response to a specific event. While that is a part of the crisis management process, Crisis Management in the New Strategy Landscape takes a long-term approach and offers a strategic orientation to crisis management. The text follows a four-stage crisis management framework: landscape survey (anticipating crisis events), strategic planning (setting up the crisis management team and plan), crisis management (addressing the crisis when it occurs), and organizational learning (applying lessons from crisis so they will be prevented, or at least mitigated in the future).

Contents A Framework for Crisis Management \ The Landscape Survey: A Macro Perspective \ Sources of Organizational Crises \ Strategic Planning and Assessing Crisis Vulnerability \ Forming the Crisis Management Team and Plan \ Organizational Strategy and Crises \ Crisis Management: Taking Action When Disaster Hits \ Crisis Communication \ The Importance of Organizational Learning \ The Underlying Role of Ethics in Crisis Management \ Emerging Trends in Crisis Management

Corporate Crime Gary Fooks University of Bath Corporate Crime brings together two of the most important issues in the social sciences today – the emergence of the corporation as the main organizing institution in contemporary societies, and the increasing inability of nation states to regulate business. The book provides a fresh and accessible discussion of corporate crime, business regulation and globalization, organized around the underlying theme of corporate power. It explores: • the mechanisms through which business power works • how public consent is won for forms of regulation • the social and political conditions of effective corporate crime control. Corporate Crime takes readers on a fascinating journey, encouraging them to understand business crime in its broadest contexts. To make the issues as accessible as possible and to stimulate readers to take them further, each chapter contains a list of recommended reading as well as useful Web links. An extensive glossary of terms is also provided.

Encyclopedia of Business in Today’s World Four-Volume Set Edited by Charles Wankel St Johns University The Encyclopedia of Global Business is a comprehensive A-to-Z, interdisciplinary, one-stop reference to a broad array of introductory business topics worldwide. Encompassing four volumes with 1,200 articles, the Encyclopedia covers all aspects of global business at an introductory level, including profiles of the Fortune 100 global companies and 50 to 75 countries with the highest Gross Domestic Products. But the bulk of the content will discuss introductory international business concepts ranging from culture shock to currency hedging, political risk, off-shoring and transnational corporations.

With international vignettes and executive briefings, the authors skilfully place corporate communications in its organizational context and show that the management of communication needs to embrace change, complexity and diversity. The text challenges traditional ideas about how corporate communications works in practice. It moves away from the prescriptive and idealized ‘how-to’ approach that most students will find in their textbooks and questions the notion that organizations are able to communicate as a coherent whole.

Publics, Politics and Power Remaking the Public in Public Services Janet Newman and John Clarke both at The Open University Publics, Politics and Power explores the emergence of new forms, sites and practices of publicness and the implications for public services. It examines the remaking of the public in the context of new formations of the nation, where issues of migration, diversity and faith challenge traditional forms of solidarity and citizenship. It suggests some of the ways in which the public domain is being recast around notions of civil society, community and populist participatory politics. Each chapter includes a series of case studies that illustrate the book’s core concepts, making this a useful teaching resource.

Developing a Learning Culture in Nonprofit Organizations Stephen J Gill Independent Consultant Non-profit organizations are under increasing pressure to demonstrate impact and that the funds raised to operate their organizations are maximized and used effectively. This book demonstrates how to create a culture of learning (intentional learning from reflection and feedback focused on successes and failures) that will lead to ongoing performance measurement and improvement. Because non-profit organizations rely heavily on volunteers and are focused on mission, not money, it is critical for them to create a culture in which learning is a motivator for change.

Corporate Social Responsibility An Organization Studies Perspective Tobias Gössling and Rob Jansen both at Tilburg University Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is central to contemporary organizations. Often approached from an economic or moral philosophical position, it is undeniable that CSR, or the negligence or absence thereof, has countless consequences for organizations, for stakeholders, for strategy, for corporate reputation, for marketing campaigns, and much more. The considerations raised for managers are critical: • what does it imply for organizations to be confronted with public demands concerning not just services but also an ethical standard? • what are the consequences of employee dissatisfaction with the organization’s responsibility policy? • how can an organization define its role within society and what are the consequences of such a definition? The authors present and examine these issues in an extremely readerfriendly and accessible format. Filled with examples and scenarios, each chapter is also supported with student questions, further readings and key learning points. This text presents a highly relevant approach to the understanding and awareness of CSR issues.

Accounting Theory Four-Volume Set Edited by Harry I Wolk Drake University Financial statements, the output of a firm’s accounting system, receive a great deal of attention, for two reasons. First, they assess how well management is doing now and second, they help predict the firm’s prospects. However, accounting systems and financial statements do not arise in a vacuum. They are based on rules and standards that have been developed at the various national and, increasingly, international levels. In turn, these rules and standards are based, to a greater or lesser extent, on accounting theory. In this major reference collection, accounting theory is taken as the basic assumptions, definitions, principles and concepts – and how we derive them – that underlie accounting rule-making by a legislative body as well as the reporting of financial information. The major work starts with a philosophical overview of accounting, including accounting theory. Among some of the other issues examined are whether accounting is an art or a science and whether or not it can be value free. Also examined is the question of whether any ‘preconditions’ are necessary to establish a viable approach to accounting theory.

Leisure Studies Themes and Perspectives

Four-Volume Set

Shaun Best University of Manchester

Edited by Rob Gray University of St Andrews, Jan Bebbington University of Dundee and Sue Gray University of St Andrews

‘Drawing upon the best traditions of British and North American leisure studies, Shaun Best provides a synthesis of relevant social theory, presents thought-provoking, inquiry-driven examples and invites students to acquire a better understanding of leisure in today’s world’ – Professor David Botterill, University of Wales What is the place of leisure in societies where people complain of ‘overwork’? How do personal freedom and choice relate to the inequalities of class, gender, disability and ethnicity? This critical introduction to the field offers a systematic account of the meaning and structure of leisure today.

The study, teaching and practice of social and environmental accounting has grown steadily over the last 40 years in both developed and emerging economies. Researchers entering the field today are faced with a complex and demanding landscape, as the impetus on the world of accounting and finance to understand the social justice agenda becomes stronger. Drawing on a carefully selected range of sources that balance history with urgency and the mainstream with innovation, this four-volume set aims to equip students, teachers and researchers with a deep primer in the essentials of the field, and encourage them to challenge and further develop those ideas. Compiled and introduced by an editorial board of wide experience and renown in the professional, governmental and academic spheres, this work is an essential resource for libraries, academics, researchers and practitioners with an interest in accountancy or the rapidly expanding social and environmental agenda.

Tourism

A Critical Introduction

Six-Volume Set

Kevin Hannam and Dan Knox both at University of Sunderland

Edited by Stephen Page and Joanne Connell both at Stirling University

This text introduces tourism students to concepts drawn from critical theory, cultural studies and the social sciences. It does so with a light and readable touch, highlighting the ideas that underlie contemporary critical tourism studies in a practical and engaging way. Specifically, the authors examine how post-structuralist thought has led to a re-imagining of power relationships and the ways in which they are central to the production and consumption of tourism experiences. Eleven clear, relevant chapters provide an accessible introduction to tourism defining, explaining and developing the key issues and methods in this exciting field.

Even though tourism forms a vibrant and dynamic field of study, the history and development of it remains uncharted in any significant manner. The subject developed in response to a growing interest and recognition of the potential value of tourism to the economy, society and culture, as well as environmental regeneration. In part, the evolution of the subject has arisen from the development of a critical interest among social scientists and more latterly business researchers. There are no benchmarks on which scholars, researchers and publicsector agencies can gauge where the subject came from, what it has achieved, where it is going, and what it means for the public sector in establishing adequate planning and control measures. This major reference collection, Tourism, brings together not only the seminal studies and articles that have shaped thinking in the tourism area, but also the structure of the collection synthesizes, organizes and logically analyzes a large number of issues to guide users through the manifold branches of this field.

Handbook of Data Analysis

Edited by Pertti Alasuutari University of Tampere, Finland, Leonard Bickman Vanderbilt University, Nashville and Julia Brannen Insitute of Education, University of London

Edited by Melissa A Hardy Pennsylvania State University and Alan Bryman Leicester University

The SAGE Handbook of Social Research Methods is a must for every social science researcher. It charts the new and evolving terrain of social research methodology, covering qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods in one volume. The Handbook includes chapters on each phase of the research process: research design; methods of data collection; and the processes of analyzing and interpreting data. The volume maintains that there is much more to research than learning skills and techniques: methodology involves the fit between theory, research questions, research design and analysis. The book also includes several chapters that describe historical and current directions in social research, debating crucial subjects such as qualitative versus quantitative paradigms, how to judge the credibility of types of research, and the increasingly topical issue of research ethics.

‘With the appearance of this handbook, data analysts no longer have to consult dozens of disparate publications to carry out their work. The essential tools for an intelligent telling of the data story are offered here, in thirty chapters written by recognized experts’ – Michael LewisBeck, F Wendell Miller Distinguished Professor of Political Science, University of Iowa This is a book that will rapidly be recognized as the bible for social researchers. It provides a first-class, reliable guide to the basic issues in data analysis, such as the construction of variables, the characterization of distributions and the notions of inference. Scholars and students can turn to it for teaching and applied needs with confidence. The book also seeks to enhance debate in the field by tackling more advanced topics such as models of change, causality, panel models and network analysis. Specialists will find much food for thought in these chapters. A distinctive feature of the book is the breadth of coverage. No other book provides a better one-stop survey of the field of data analysis. In 30 specially commissioned chapters the editors aim to encourage readers to develop an appreciation of the range of analytic options available, so they can choose a research problem and then develop a suitable approach to data analysis.

Completing Your Qualitative Dissertation

Making the Most of your Placement

A Roadmap From Beginning to End

John Neugebauer and Jane Evans-Brain

Linda Dale Bloomberg and Marie Volpe

‘An invaluable resource to help students think about what they want to gain from their placement and prepare for interview. Covering issues of pay to working abroad and learning from placements, its all here under one cover’ – Heather Collier, Director, National Council for Work Experience A new addition to the SAGE Study Skills series, this book is an invaluable resource for any business and management student intending to do a work placement as part of their degree. The text provides practical and thorough advice to help students select, prepare and navigate through organizational life. Key features of the book include: • coverage of every step of the work placement process, from planning, making contact and interviewing, through to reflective learning and how to make the most of the placement experience and the opportunities it presents for future careers; • each chapter features testimonials from students who have done placement years, offering experiences and advice; • checklists to help students cover every consideration for commencing on their placement; • an extensive list of useful Websites and contacts, as well as further reading suggestions.

Completing your Qualitative Dissertation fills an important gap in the qualitative research literature by specifically addressing the fastgrowing practice of qualitative postgraduate dissertations in colleges and universities throughout the world. Many students struggle to complete qualitative research projects because the research itself is inherently messy. To address this challenge the authors have distilled decades of experience into a first-of-its-kind, highly practical reference for graduate students. At the heart of the book is a series of chapters that models the typical progression of a dissertation. Each chapter is illustrated by examples that give the reader an understanding of what the actual write-up would look like. Emphasis throughout the book is on conceptual understanding as it relates to the practical aspects involved in navigating the dissertation process.
