'This book provides a much needed overview of contemporary developments in reward. The array of high quality contributors manage to balance the provision of useful information on pay and benefits with a variety of critical analytical insights. As a consequence, the book will be of interest and value to policy makers, practitioners and academics.' - Ian Kessler, Reader in Employment Relations, Oxford Said Business School, UK 'Susan, Steve and Esmond present a contemporary look at the wider issues of reward as viewed from a number of stakeholder perspectives. Bringing this fascinating subject together is a contribution from acknowledged experts within the field.' - Richard Thorpe, Professor of Management Development, Leeds University Business School 'Its strength is that it examines the pros and cons of issues in a lively and intellectually challenging style, where other authors might be more cautious.' - Alastair Hatchett, People Management 'A very pleasing feature of this book is that it seeks to analyse and understand by describing change. The essays often provide small all-important context that newcomers to reward may not already have.' - Katharine Turner, The Reward Quarter
