Best of the textbooks

Compared to the other major textbooks out there, especially the better reviewed book by "M" this is by far the more useful. When I need to find something practical, like the Federal Evaluation System for example, or Multiple Linear Regression as a job evaluation tool, 95% of the time it is in Henderson and it is very well documented. Both these topics are barely touched on in the other major texts which I also own. From a guy with a Ph.D. and 30 years of paying my bills with comp information, give me Henderson any day. |

| For a first-time textbook buyer from Amazon I was hesitant about purchasing books this way. But it was easy, and quick. The book was in excellent condition, like brand new, and I received it very promptly. I will definitely recommend purchasing textbooks this way to family, friends, and classmates. |
Great Textbook

| This has been my favorite textbook in my college career. It has rather short chapters, or the layout is good, it does not seem the chapters go on forever. It gets straight to the point and is very informative and the information interesting. Even though it is a textbook I wanted to keep reading it. |
Very good condition, exactly like the description said

| I usually do not buy used books but because of the price, I went aheadwith this purchase. The description was "used, like new". The book was exactly like the description explained, very good condition, not a lot of writing, like new. I am definetely buying more from this seller. |
Outdated but - As Yet, Nothing Better

I assign this as one of two textbooks in teaching Compensation Administration in graduate school.
While it has undergone 9 revisions, the attempts to update it to today's compensation world are not adequate. Far too little is here concerning internet usage, for example.
But perhaps its greatest shortcoming is in its glancing treatment of group incentive plans as a key means to unlock workforce potential. It is a glaring and unforgivable gap.
If anybody out there knows of a better fundamental compensation textbook, I'd love to hear about it. |
