"Gerhart and Rynes provide a thorough, comprehensive review of the vast literatures relevant to compensation. Their insights regarding the integration of economic, psychological, and management perspectives are particularly enlightening. This text provides an invaluable tool for those interested in advancing our understanding of compensation practices."
"The authors artfully synthesize complex scholarly articles from economics, psychology, and sociology. The organization of the book is exceptionally transparent... Compensation should be accessible to a wide range of readers who appreciate a multidisciplinary perspective on organizational issues... I cannot emphasize enough how effectively Gerhart and Rynes discuss compensation thoughout this book. As an experienced academic researcher, I have already benefited tremendously from my first reading of the book .
“Compensation is an excellent review of the current state of employee compensation... It is an excellent way to stimulate the thinking of those involved in research on organizational reward systems and should be required widely of doctoral students and others with a research interest in the topic... One of the strongest features of this book is its clear theoretical orientation to the topics covered.
I found this book very interesting. The chapters each cover good discussion of the topic and the authors are well respected. I personally found chapter 2 to be helpful in framing the economic theories of rewards.
