'Yvonne McNulty and Chris Brewster have been at the forefront of expatriation research for many years, and this book continues their legacy of breaking new ground in understanding the multi-dimensional aspects of global mobility. Their categorization of international work will not only assist HR professionals in better understanding the complexity of the international workforce but will also aid scholars in better conceptualizing the dynamics associated with the specific international workers that they study. This book is an important value-added contribution to the field and should be on the bookshelf of anyone who works in the area of global mobility.'--Mark Mendenhall, University of Chattanooga, US'This book is both important and engaging for students, scholars and managers interested in the management of an internationally mobile workforce. I believe this is the first book in the international HRM field to discuss the broad spectrum of challenges brought by the current global context and changing nature of international work. Written in an easy to read manner, this innovative and original book draws on the authors' considerable expertise with an excellent balance between detail and breadth.'--Helen De Cieri, Monash University, Australia'This book demonstrates the benefits of academic collaboration. The text covers the full range of what it means to be working internationally, and sheds light on both existing and new problems facing people moving abroad. A well-researched, useful, and fascinating book that provides teachers and students with a solid foundation in the area.'--Jaime Bonache, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain
