Personnel Administration in Education: A Management Approach

Not only will this book give you a pratical perspective on Personnel Administration, but also it will give you the history of the discipline (something I never knew). The section on professionald development ranks as the best I have read.

If you are interested in pursuing a career as an administrator in a public school this text is for you. It explains how the selection, orientation, training procedures should be handled. It also explains how performance appraisals/assessments should be conducted. This book is an excellent guide for the both the novice and experienced administrator. It provides the reader with an excellent look at the inner workings of a public school. This is definately a good buy.
