Book Description
In nearly all OECD countries, the labour market has been in flux in recent decades. This book examines the labour markets and the institutional frameworks that condition their functioning in four different countries: Canada, the United States, Denmark and Sweden. Through a comparative study of these cases, the book discusses the nation-specific patterns that exist in a world that seems to become increasingly subject to common social and economic development.

Must have book.......2001-03-16
I've used the 1979 version for many years. It is a must have book for any administrator. I am buying the 1990 version only because my last copy (I started with 4) was "borrowed" and never returned. It saves time in doing those routine and letters that we all do from time to time.

Customer Reviews:
The book is okay........2004-02-09
The book gives you the inside look into human resources-roles,
certification, evolution of hr, and the practice. This book
is rather thin for its price and one part of the book that I really don't like is it tells you alot of info, but doesn't
explain why. Also, there is no info on graduate school for
the human resources program. I'm a career changer from technology and I'm still confused at the end of the book.
plenty of data.......2003-04-10
If you're the kind of person who wants more than just quotes from insiders (although this one has plenty of that too), and are looking for stats and figures to paint a picture for why you'd want to get into a given industry, then this is the guide you're looking for. I have read plenty of articles here and there on the HR industry, but this guide gives that extra layer of data that gives you a good idea of what's going on overall, where the industry is moving to and where you need to focus and improve in order to stay ahead of the curve and get into a company that will allow you to advance in your career. I've been doing HR/recruiting for a couple years now, for a small financial services firm. Now that i've read this guide, I feel that much more ready to move onto bigger and better, specifically to a larger firm in the same industry. I'm taking wetfeet's advice and enrolling in some business courses in order to back up my HR experience. I'm also glad to see the real people profiles and days in the life to better gauge if a larger firm is indeed the right place for me (i now think it is! and am more comfortable with the idea having read the guide).
MBA and HR.......2003-02-20
This guide was extremely helpful in laying out the groundwork for my plan of attack in getting a job as an HR Manager at a top HR firm dealing in the IT industry. I am in final stages of interviewing and, with your advice, am really working my business administration and IT background as well as the HR-related courses I've taken over the past several months. It seems to be working very well! Fingers crossed, but I think I'll be getting an offer next week! Thanks!
Book Description

Customer Reviews:
A Most Valuable Tool.......2001-11-16
I highly recommend this book. In my work as a psychotherapist, I meet many women who have not yet come to terms with with their personal financial demons. A Woman's Book of Money & Spiritual Vision has provided me with a wonderful tool with which I can help them begin. The book is written in a personal style. The author shares her own story as she presents questions and worksheets to help the reader explore the dynamic of money in her history and in her day-to-day life. It can be used alone or with a group to help uncover the myths and facts behind one's financial attitudes and behaviors.
Women and Money: Despite Rumors, Made for Each Other.......2001-06-19
Rosemary Williams looks at money--crazy-making, delicious, necessary money--from every angle. She does the same with women's belief systems. Money is simple; it's our baroque beliefs that keep us from it. "Money is never neutral," she says. "It triggers powerful emotions and conflicting messages--especially for women. The 'money messages' we were taught can pop up at any moment, in decisions large and small."
This is "a workshop in a book" because that's how the author does her research. Her experience during years of leading women through the thorny underbrush of our misconceptions and false information could save the rest of us years of struggle and want.
A former banker and financial planner, Williams has constructed her book like a diary. This is one book meant to be written in, the pages covered in notes. I found that a relief ; somehow breaking that "rule" of my father's gave me the idea that other childhood "rules" were also about to be replaced by grownup liberations. It also called to mind the writing we do in school workbooks in the act of learning.
Something that may come as a surprise, says Williams, is that money and spirituality are not at odds.There are prayers and quotes scattered through this book. Somehow beginning this work by saying "Holy One, Sustainer of all things, give me the courage to look at my financial life with clear sight...." is a wonderfully centering process.
With "Women and Money" women can lessen their fear through dispelling ignorance, which is surely the root of all evil.
Book Description
A rich tapestry of personal wisdom, experience and strength, this anthology will touch and enrich your heart, mind and spirit. Each of the 14 chapters is written by a different woman, offering her unique perspective on life, work and money. Not just for women, this wonderful book is perfect for anyone who is facing life challenges, needs a spiritual 'faith-lift' or longs for a rekindling of enthusiasm and hope. With a Foreword by Kay Yow, this must-read book is one you will treasure and revisit often.

This book is a wonderful tool to use for gaining insight and ideas on how to be with your money.The characters that Gayle Rose brings into this book are wonderful! They helped me to better relate to how I am with my own money management. Thank you.
