Reviews

'Humanising organizations and organising humanization require neverending debates, critical reflection and practical experimentations from a diversity of positions, sources, hopes and fears. The reflexive reader will here find no definitive recipe but food for thought, for hope and for engagement.' - Jean-Luc Moriceau, Professor of Research Methods and head of doctoral education program, Institut Mines-Telecom/Telecom Ecole de Management, France 'The trades that van de Klundert, van Boeschoten and their contributors set up between the study of the processes of organisation and humanisation (particularly the rich and rare Dutch inflected varieties of the latter) are revealed in this fascinating new text to be very profitable ones indeed. For the questioning of both organisation and humanisation so enabled should be of the highest value to us, if we seek to progress either' - Simon D. Lilley, Professor of Information and Organisation, University of Leicester School of Management, UK 'In a world increasingly dominated by instrumentalism, discrimination and injustice, this thought provoking collection offers a timely series of reflections on what it means to be human in organisations. 'Practical humanisation' takes precedence over naive universalism in contributions that seek to explore this complex question in contexts - health, education, commerce - of everyday management practice.' - Professor Peter Case, Bristol Leadership Centre, University of the West of England, UK
