I became excited when I saw the title. I thought it was about watching human behaviour at work, in progress. Not human behaviour AT work, the physical structure.

I wouldn't have bought this book if I had known to put the correct emphasis on the right word in the title.

Newstrom provides a comprehensive overview of organizational behavior (OB). He incorporates the latest research in this relatively new and rapidly evolving field of applied science. Most importantly, he convincingly emphasizes that managers should make it a priority to understand OB, incorporate OB principles in decision-making, and to keep up with the latest research in this evolving field. This text has been updated in many editions to do the same.

Organizational Behavior can be dry, but as textbooks go the writing is very good. There are helpful charts and tables, although there must be at least a half dozen charts that are set up on 4-square X-Y grid. Those kind of all blur together and become less effective because of it.

The only major problem with the book is the nonsense at the beginning and end of each chapter that McGraw-Hill probably forced into the book. Textbook publishers are the worst! Newstrom's core content in this book is solid.

This book really helps me much in realising how the conformation of a company runs under the pretext of groups and teams by means of the formal and informal relationship in the society. It is very important to realise that a mutually friendly relatioship helps much in running a company with outstanding group work. Even informal relationship between colleagues is quite an important mean in archievement. This book includes much of the authentic actuality of real life situation to be explained in an exact way.
