Pulling it all together

In his final book, Dr Shingo tries to pull his ideas together and clear some misconceptions. He works hard to drive certain points home. The material is good and worth reading, unfortunately, it seems to lack proper editing to organize the content well and eliminate repetition (a part of driving points home). I can only guess that it was rushed to completion before his death. He remains my favorite author on `lean' topics, and I greatly appreciate his work.
