Organisations of all kinds have invested a great deal of time and
effort in staff appraisal and management development, continually
re-defining their aims and methods. This book, first published in
1976, reviews the progress made by 17 organisations in both public
and private sectors. It presents the findings of an extensive
series of research studies that assess the effectiveness of
appraisal interviews and identify the factors contributing to their
success or failure. Looking beyond appraisal, further measures
needed to increase job satisfaction and efficiency are outlined.
These include more systematic career development plans for all
staff and fresh initiatives to secure their more active
participation in the appraisal process. This title will be of
interest to those who are concerned in management, and those
studying business studies and human resource management.

In 1905, a sixteen-year-old Austrian boy falls in love with the
music of his compatriot Franz Lehár when he attends the premiere
of Lehár’s operetta ‘The Merry Widow’. The boy dreams of
becoming an artist in Vienna, has no great interest in politics and
shows no signs of anti-Semitism. His name is Adolf Hitler. Inspired
by real events, ‘Song of Buchenwald’ vividly portrays
Hitler’s transformation into a murderous, racist fanatic, and
Vienna’s degeneration into a hotbed of extremism and hate, where
Lehár’s Jewish wife Sophie and his Jewish colleagues –
including the great librettist Fritz Löhner-Beda – find
themselves in grave and constant danger. Yet one fact remains
unchanged: Hitler is still a great admirer of Lehár’s music. Can
Lehár use this to persuade Hitler to spare Sophie a
Another enthralling, fast-paced whodunnit in the series of Lady
Tremayne’s diaries. The year is 1655. In the seventeenth century
many people still believed that those suffering from the falling
sickness (what is today called epilepsy) were possessed by the
devil. When Lady Jane’s uncle is found murdered, her former wet
nurse’s daughter, who suffers from the falling sickness, is
accused of the crime. Jane is convinced of her innocence but when
she is put on trial and convicted, Jane is faced with a race
against time to find sufficient evidence to prevent her execution
and in so doing discover the identity of her uncle’s actual
murderer.
