"These chapters capture knowledge that cannot be gained elsewhere. They do not review the existing literature or rehash well-recognized issues but instead reflect those important insights that can only be gained from years of developing selection systems in organizations, which these authors are uniquely able to do." --Michael Campion, professor of management, Krannert Graduate School of Management, Purdue University
