2.0 out of 5 stars Not a bad global operations textbook Mar 27 2000
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
I used this book for a global operations class. It contains both text and cases in one book. However, cases in some chapters do not directly relate to the content presenting in those chapters. Moreover, some cases are really difficult to read and understand the context of the case for analysis. However, there are some good HBS cases.

2.0 out of 5 stars Operations & Logistics theses papers Sep 10 2010
By Candid - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Bought this book for my MBA program. Book has quality content on subject matter. But who cares about quality of content if book is not reader friendly? Book is written in a very impersonal way and in passive tenses, not reader friendly. The book feels like a compilation of various thesis and academic papers meant for publication in a professional journal. Though having a colorful hardback, inside editing is very much formatted like school term / academic papers - everything is in black. I get the impresssion that no real native english speaking person reviewed this book or is remotely associated with writing this book--the french co-author may have edited the book.

I did not find reading this book pleasurable - has a very academic feel. I struggled with reading it, rephrasing many of the sentences to active form to ease understanding. Overall, the book needs serious gramatical review.

Format:Hardcover
This book reads like an electrical engineering nightmare. Author writes in impersonal way which makes the material 10X as hard as to understand as it should be. A very frustrating and non-exciting read.
put some more passion into your writing.
Don't make it more complicated than it should be
