"This new book on Learning and Development is ideal for my module on this topic. I am delighted to see that Armstrong's book includes a whole chapter on Individual learning, including self-directed and lifelong learning. I particularly liked the link of chapters to each other, and their relevance to current organizational learning and practices. This is a great book, useful, relevant, topical and well written. I will certainly add it to my reading list."
