Summary: Frequent errors mar first print editions
Review: Frequent typographical errors and fundamental gramatical mistakes in the first printing (due to the publisher's failure to edit the manuscript, according to the author) distracted this reader from the book's content at all times. Be sure you receive the second printing. As of February 2004, Amazon was still selling what I assume is the first printing.

Summary: A Word From The Author
Review: I would like to take this opportunity to thank reviewers for any comments and suggestions, which have been the source of countless improvements to this book and the overall project. The manuscript was not edited prior to publication. I don't know why, but this is Kluwer's policy. The good news is that it is the #1 book in its field, and sold out in 4 months, so the second printing afforded the chance to fix most of the typos. This is my first book, written while in a doctoral program, teaching, and researching/travelling, so your patience is appreciated. Besides being #1 in English, it is also one of the most widely translated business books ever. It is being published in 12+ overseas editions which are translated and edited for that region. If you speak another language and are interested in logistics elsewhere, you may want to check these out. Douglas Long

Summary: Great Textbook !
Review: This book is one of the best textbooks I have ever read. All concepts are very well explained. Unlike other textbooks, "International Logistics" provides so many examples that the material becomes easy to understand. The writer's extensive world traveling is portayed in most of the chapters.I highly recommend it to anybody who is interested in the field.
