Organizational behavior  2007-12-06
Bottom line the book consists of basic fundamentals in the science of organizational behavior. Each chapter had the important definitions on the margin of each page throughout the text. Summary of each chapter is in a Q & A format on the last 2 pages of that specific chapter. There are huge differences between the last two editions , so if you are wondering my advice DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON OLD EDITIONS !!

Alright  1999-11-20
I used this book at Cornell's school of Industrial and Labor Relations in an OB course. It was ok, but I have seen better. The examples are mostly revelant, but sometimes it strays from the covered material. A good book to use to review for the final exam, but if your teacher draws tests from their own lectures, make sure you utilize the index in the back!
Poor theory, good applications  1999-06-11
This text was used at the University of Wisconsin-Madison for an honors OB course. It served the class well by providing relevant and often humorous applications of theory. However, the descriptions of the actual theories themselves were weak and vague often referring to other concepts not yet learned.
