'It is great to see the new and state-of-the-art edition of James Farr and Nancy Tippins’s Handbook of Employee Selection. This is a ‘must read’ for anybody involved in selection and assessment at work.' – Sir Cary Cooper, 50th Anniversary Professor of Organizational Psychology and Health, Manchester Business School, University of Manchester UK, and President of the CIPD'Jim Farr and Nancy Tippins are the ideal co-editors to provide "The" book on selection/staffing. Jim has spent his academic career studying the science of selection and shaping practice; Nancy has spent her entire career as a scientist who puts into practice the science of staffing. Both individuals are seasoned professionals to whom SIOP, the courts, and practitioners turn to for their expertise in this domain.' – Gary Latham, Secretary of State Chair of Organizational Effectiveness, Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto, Canada
