How this book is used
Its major subject areas help organise existing and new guides. Each new reading-based guide identifies the relevant chapters. Original summaries, application sketches and invented examples are editorial interpretations, not the authors’ text, figures or proprietary assessments.
Adding another perspective
The library stores books, subject groupings, article references and dictionary entries as structured database content. Further books can contribute to existing subjects, introduce new ones and support comparisons between authors. A new source should record its edition and the specific chapters used; differences between authors should be explained rather than silently blended.
Models, evidence and law
A model’s historical influence does not establish that it predicts every workplace outcome. Use the limitations and source notes alongside the diagram. Book dates and article review dates are different: employment-law requirements are checked against current authoritative sources, with future changes identified separately.
