Public Personnel Administration Reviews

"The greatest strength of the text is that it provides a good fast overview of a complex and rapidly changing body of material. To do this effectively, it must focus on basic concepts rather than details or jargon."
"It is difficult to cover a complex field in a brief text, but Cayer provides a thorough overview. Also, the cases at the end of each chapter provide students with a valuable opportunity to apply the concepts to real world situations."
"I think the book is well written, well organized, and covers all the topics that I would expect to be covered in such a textbook. There are other texts that go into more detail ... but I think Cayer strikes just the right balance and covers the necessary topics clearly and well."
"I encourage students to read the Cayer book ... to obtain a more general understanding of a particular topic or area of study. The more casual writing style and smooth flow of the book have been very well received by students, which is why I have continued to use the book for so many years."
