This book published by Elgar Press and written by two well known American researchers on workplace learning - Professor Karen Watkins and Professor Victoria Marsick has the introductory chapter available as pdf. The short chapter provides an overview of the book and each of the chapters. The book's focus is on how the world is now more complex and the need for organisational learning and development to keep up with the times, and to continually prepare the workforce for the present and future challenges.
The book provides a summary of the American perspective on workplace learning, which is founded in Human Resources Management (HRM) as compared to the European / Australian workplace learning scholarship with its more humanistic slant.
