CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 3 reviews)

really useful book  
This book is a very practical, well-written guide to workplace issues. It clearly sets out both law and practice. I think this book is useful to both lawyers and lay people alike. It is also very readable with a great many examples given. I recommend it highly.

Highly informative and good reading  
As a social worker I found that this book made an extremely valuable contribution to my understanding the issues around workplace harrassment. The book is written with clarity and sensitivity. Randi Blom, MSW

Plain speaking about a delicate set of issues  
I like the clear, judgement-free approach, and the no-nonsense, bedrock feeling of fairness and reality. I especially like the fact that the book is written in plain English, for audiences of all intelligence and experience levels.
Even though I'm not a professional in the field, it was helpful for me as a small business owner to get a better idea of what goes on in the workplace.
I'm sure it would be doubly helpful to HR folks, and anyone running or managing an enterprise, or a department.
