Please elaborate on which domain in HR you need the book for. HR covers such a vast area that you won't find all the information in the same book.

Hi!

Organizational Behavior by Dr. Udai Pareek is one of the best I have read. For HR, you can read any book by Dr. T V Rao. One such book is Designing and Managing HR Systems (by Dr. TVR and Dr. Udai Pareek). From foreign authors, you can read "HR - The Value Proposition" by Prof. Dave Ulrich.

Hi,

A good book for HR would be Flippo by Dessler. For OB, I recommend S. Robbins and Luthens. These are very good books.

You can try the books of H. L. Kumar for Personnel Management & Industrial Relations for the practical aspects.
