Acclaimed on publication as `the most comprehensive British analysis of training philosophies, approaches, methods and their underlying historical context currently available in print¿, successive editions of Training Interventions have ensured `it remains a definitive text¿ on training in the UK. For the seventh edition, the new co-authors have revised and updated the text to take account of the growing emphasis on interactive learning, online learning and other recent developments. The new edition also adopts a more accessible and student friendly approach, with case material, examples, activities and questions to aid student learning.
