This book is blah. Barely any graphics, charts, or pictures to spice things up, and it is black and white which you don't realize how boring a text book can be until they take the color out. Also, the authors try to make weird jokes through out the book that really detract from the point they are trying to teach. Battleship Bluray Tamil Dubbed HD Movie more.

Example: Page 306, 'The oil that lubricates the compensation engine (email the authors if you agree this is a horrible metaphor!) is performance measurement and performance management.' What.Why would they say that?

If its a horrible metaphor why publish it?! Example: page 306 again: 'Who buys an explorer that gets 17 mpg when gas now costs over $4/gallon? (except of course a dumb second author!

By the way, it's a really pretty red!) HR can't control these types of environmental obstacles, after all.' .did they just refer to one of the authors as dumb? THIS is what I mean.

Its through out the whole book. Example stories not very good.

If you are a teacher, I would look for another book. This book was selected by my university: Webster (out of St. Louis, Missouri) for my online course. I have used other textbooks for other classes and though, good, there were not as well written as this one. The authors did a great job with this book.

It feels more like a conversation with them than a typical textbook. This style and accuracy of the content make an otherwise trying subject very interesting, pleasant and inviting. Additionally, it provides great reference points that stimulate the reader's curiosity--in this case me.

You have my permission to quote me. This was a required text for my Total Rewards class. Sadly, I ended up using search engines, and HR websites to help with learning the direct explanations of each chapter assigned (basically the whole book).

At no point in the 8-week course was I able to use the book as a reference. It was much easier to be where internet service was and go web-surfing. With the internet and my own common sense/logical conclusions, the assignments were completed. The only time I used any part of the book was to give a 'gimme' and reference it in my papers. It reads like a drunk's chatter.

Vocabulary words (found in the glossary) are sometimes not in bold face or italicized. It is difficult to tell if a particular word is a vocabulary word or not, because the word will not be clearly defined in the text (no indication basically). Furthermore, it will be a familiar word like 'professional,' so one wouldn't think it would be a vocabulary word.

A word will be introduced, not clearly defined, and much later be defined a little better making it difficult to write notes in an effective and efficient manner. Sentences will not be clearly stated. Paragraphs and the chapters in general are unfocused. I have a hard time believing any of the authors ever took an English class or that this book had any editors. This book is a joke. How can I focus on the content, and become a compensation analyst when my textbook is so poorly written.
