Reviews"Ronald W. Rebore's textbook, Human Resources Administration in Education is the very best human resource management text I have read thus far. I have examined several other textbooks by various authors and have yet to find a comparable survey work which examines all the relevant functions of human resource management in a more concise and vivid manner for graduatate students. Rebore develops each chapter using the most relevant topics in a sequenced manner followed by activities which add poignancy and connection between the topics and the school setting." -- J. Gary Stewart, Austin Peay State University "It is reliable, sound, and tracks my experience as assistant high school principal, elementary school principal, high school principal, curriculum director, superintensent of schools and chairman of the Educational Leadership Department." -- Burel Block, Albany State University, "Ronald W.
