"In the second edition of this book, Thornton, Mueller-Hanson, and Rupp present a perfect mix of best practices, recent theories, empirical evidence, and examples for designing high-fidelity and low-fidelity simulations. Therefore, this book represents an excellent updated 'do-it-yourself' guide for all HR professionals, consultants, and students interested in developing such simulations."
