This is a comprehensive, systematic casebook which demonstrates the contribution of research to the formulation and resolution of organisational problems actually faced by managers. The cases are presented in clusters which centre on a particular aspect of organisational behaviour: motivation, groups, technology, leadership, structure, change and development. Each cluster is introduced by comments on the cases and references to the theoretical literature. The introduction reviews the case method and provides suggestions for using it.
Using interviews and questionaires, Megan Hutching has created a lively account of the process of emigration from the point of view of the migrants themselves, often in their own words. She recounts their experiences of the 12,000-mile sea journey to New Zealand and adaption to a life in a new country.
