Rogelberg (organizational science, management, & psychology, Univ. of North Carolina at Charlotte) addresses virtually every topic relevant to industrial and organizational (I/O) psychologists, who study workplace-related topics such as productivity and employee morale. Through 550 entries, experts in the field examine the history of I/O psychology, research approaches, discrimination in the workplace, evaluation and performance management, and more, along with information on career options and professional journals. The entries are concise and nontechnical and include useful further reading selections. This second edition updates current articles and adds 200 new entries, increasing coverage and expanding the original set from two to four volumes. VERDICT Suitable for psychology collections and students in MA or PhD programs in I/O psychology.
