Reviews

‘While nearly all would agree that the world of work is undergoing dramatic change, there is an underappreciation of the increasing variation in organizational forms that is emerging. This volume fills the gap with thoughtful essays each of which provides new theory and evidence. Practitioners as well as theorists will benefit much from the many insights provided by top scholars in this volume. The essays clarify not only what is happening, but also why change is occurring and what policymakers could do to ensure society benefits from the ongoing changes.’
