Examples from current day and recent media events are numerous, intended to illustrate concepts and issues related to work motivation, emotion, attitudes, and behavior.Pinder, Craig C. is the author of 'Work Motivation in Organizational Behavior, Second Edition', published 2008 under ISBN 9780805856040 and ISBN 0805856048.
