Customer Reviews

Fantastic

I bought this book to supplement the courses I am taking on his subjects. This book is great, it not only educates you on basics of logistics and supply chain but the financial and buisness aspects of it as well. This book is well worth the money.

Excellent !!!!

Simple, concise, straight to the point. Its lack of very technical jargon makes this book an ideal one for newbies in logistics like me.

Best Practical Reference

This book simply rules the subject area! If you are a practitioner looking for hands-on advice and solid methodology, this is your blueprint. It will jump-start and carry through your Supply Chain/Logistics activities. One of the best Supply Chain books I have encountered. It has a spot on my desk (as opposed to the library).Academicians, people wanting to broaden horizons, and undergrad students will find this too technical/practical, hard-to-relate, and difficult to pad out their term papers.

Supply Chain Strategy - Classes and Book

The classes at Georgia Tech were fantastic and I have been reading the book since I have returned home. It is the best book on the subject that I have ever read and I will keep it on my book shelf right next to Gordon Garham's Inventory Management for future reference. I don't want to sound stupid but I like tech books that have a lot of pictures. Dr. Ed Frazelle is a great teacher and I give both the classes and the book my most enthusiastic recommendation.
