"There have been many debates over the decades about the best format for rating scales .. .Pulakos presents the more important arguments on these matters in a way most readers will comprehend. Pulakos’s comprehensive system begins with specifying organizational objectives and then moves down through each level. The primary audience is not psychologists so much as human resources staff and the managers who must be responsible for developing, implementing, and defending a performance management system. It should be invaluable to those who are developing a system and overseeing training on its use. For the student audience, it will provide a practical perspective that is often missing from their training." (PsycCritiques, October 2009)
