Today, thinkers and policymakers envision new roles for human Resource management, one of the most important one is "competency-basing" in all functions of human Resource management from planning and selection as input processes to the development and maintenance and output processes of human Resources. The purpose of this article is to reView the “, Competency-Based Human Resource Management”,book by David Dubios et al. The book is reViewed and criticized Based on two methods of formalist critique that focuses on form-elements such as structure and writing-and research critique that gives originality to the content, and also Based on the criteria of the Iranian Council for ReViewing Books and Text on Human Sciences. Findings showed that the main strengths of the book are having a theoretical and practical perspective, paying attention to the organizational context in the application of competencies and confronting and comparing traditional with competency-Based human Resource processes. This work also has points for improvement, the most important of which are the lack of up-to-date references despite the reprint of the book, issues unrelated to or less related to the main concept of the book, and the need to explain new methods of human Resource management processes in the competency-Based approach. In the end, Based on the findings, suggestions were made in two headings of form and content.
