It is an excellent textbook and also serves as a reference for readers interested in the subject. Replacing traditional personnel management with the theories and methods of human resource management is a trend in the development of modern enterprise management and has gradually become a consensus among managers. However, achieving this in practice requires considerable effort. The reason lies not only in the need for a process to integrate theory with practice but also in the inherent weaknesses of the theory itself, particularly that the Chinese human resource management theory has yet to mature. Of course, management follows certain principles, and so does human resource management. The theories and methods of human resource management introduced from abroad also hold some reference value for Chinese management practices. However, one special issue cannot be ignored: managing people differs from other types of management and is greatly influenced by socio-economic and cultural characteristics. Different ethnic groups have distinct ideologies, behaviors, and habits, requiring different management approaches.
