Supply Chain Management: The Basics and Beyond

Rating:
Summary: A series of articles does not make a book.
Review: I was disappointed. Make sure you understand that this book is a compilation of a series of articles that appeared from mid-1980 to mid-1990. Two problems arise: 1) Since each article is brief, there is no depth to the subject matter, and 2) though a valiant attempt was made to organize the articles into logical chapters and categories, the truth-of-the-matter is that the flow of information from one article to another can be disjointed and difficult to follow. With all due respect, the author points this out in his Introduction, but alas, I had already purchased the book.

Summary: Good Compilation of thoughts on Supply Chain
Review: This is a Compilation of good articles. It gives an idea about Supply Chain thoughts developed over a period of time. We cannot see all articles connected and establish a chain of thoughts because it seems a book was not planned when the author was writing these articles. However,Very good book for knowing the fundamental concepts of supply chain.
