A lot of good points in this book. Good food for thought, and relatively easy to read despite the text book format.
The amount of references is a bit annoying though and interrupts the flow, but at least they’re referring to many prominent researchers/studies in the HR and diversity field.
I will keep this in my bookshelf to go back to in the future.

Although this is primarily a text book for lecturers and university students, it does provide a good summary of the main aspects of SHRM.
This a useful reference work which is also readble - a rare combination!
The subject material is covered thoroughly while acknowledging the various criticisms from competing perspectives. Having used this book to teach SHRM for three years, I can honestly say that there were no complaints about it from students - a major plus!

The amount of times that Boxall and Purcell use their own work to support arguments in this book is astounding.
