Now in its fifth edition, Rosemary Harrison¿s insightful and engaging L&D text remains the definitive textbook for HRD and HRM students at postgraduate level, including those studying the CIPD qualification, and for those taking 'development modules¿ in disciplines such as health, PGCE- post-compulsory education and public administration. Learning and Development is an increasingly important subject in business today; it is also a vast and complex topic. This textbook presents a comprehensive, balanced and detailed exploration of L&D, at the same time making it accessible to all through a clear writing style and a range of learning features such as case studies, examples, questions and exercises. Written by a leading expert in the field and the former CIPD Chief Examiner, Learning and Development provides an invaluable framework for anyone studying the subject. This fully revised and updated edition covers the most recent trends, challenges and research in L&D and includes access to revision guides and online manuals via a companion website.
