"Undeniably some fascinating insights. ... The idea that workplace behaviour is insidious points us toward the consideration of some behavioural developments that are clearly of great significance in contemporary organizations." - Stephen Ackroyd, University of Lancaster Management School, UK, in Administrative Science Quarterly

"In short, this first volume on the subject illuminates an entire segment of misconduct occurring more subtley on the premises of our work. In doing so, the book aims to stimulate and even speed, reflection and action in an area already in turmoil. This contribution has the merit to provide readers with different backgrounds and varied interests of methods, tools and practical or theoretical reflections. ... After reading this collective work, the regulars in the study of antisocial and deviant behavior at work will find new life to their actions, thoughts or investigations." - François Courcy, Université de Sherbrooke, Canada

"This is an outstanding book which has to be ready by anybody interested in human behavior at work, but also in life more generally. It is sad to say in this frenetic, competitive and insecure world, that insidious behavior is more prevalent now than ever before. It is a must read for all concerned with the human condition of the 21st century." - Cary L. Cooper, Distinguished Professor of Organizational Psychology and Health, Lancaster University Management School, UK

"Greenberg, along with a stellar cast of contributors, takes the reader on an enormously insightful and productive journey, probing one of the most prevalent, painful and disturbing forms of contemporary workplace behavior—insidious behaviors. Whether it’s lying, sexist humor or verbal abuse, bad behavior seems to roam widely over today’s organizational landscapes. Greenberg et al. document the severity of the problem, analyze its many roots, and help us understand constructive remedies. This is truly a ‘must read’ for anyone hoping to create a more civil and nurturing workplace environment." - Roderick M. Kramer, William R. Kimball Professor of Organizational Behavior, Stanford University Graduate School of Business, Stanford University, USA

"Insidious workplace behavior is harmful, important and prevalent in organizational life, yet no one has dealt with it until now. This book should be required reading for every scholar and manager concerned about workplace dysfunction." - Sandra L. Robinson, Distinguished University Scholar, Sauder School of Business, University of British Columbia, Canada

"Jerry Greenberg has made numerous seminal contributions to the field of workplace psychology. Insidious Workplace Behavior stands as his latest in a long line of path-breaking projects. Jerry and his colleagues have, in a single impressive volume, summarized the latest thinking about this important area of work and outlined an important program of ‘next steps’ to guide future theory, research, and practice." - Ricky W. Griffin, Distinguished Professor of Management and Blocker Chair in Business, Mays Business School, Texas A&M University, USA
