The premise of this book is that research into gossip, organization, and work is an important idea whose time has come. A key feature of the book is the inclusion of 'practice points' showing how - and where - theory and/or research intersect with practice, and vice versa.

This book articulates a clear and persuasive argument for the development of compassion in higher education in a global climate of increasing competition, complexity and uncertainty.Drawing upon a range of interdisciplinary, theoretical and professional perspectives, the book addresses the key challenges facing the 21st century university.
