Recommended Books: 

Use Keyword or Subject searching to find books by a topic.   To search multiple words not as a phrase do a Keyword search and use Boolean Operations - 
         AND to find all of the words in any order
         OR to find any of the words
         AND NOT to exclude one or more words

For example
      Keyword   organization* and  (cross-cultur* or intercultural) and management

A single * symbol will find any ending up to 5 characters. cultur* will retreive culture, cultural, cultures, etc. 

A full list of search tips is available at the Keyword Searching page.

Suggested subject headings include:
Industrial management 
Organizational behavior (note: use American spelling)
Psychology, industrial
