Very Thin on Content by R. Ferguson (Park City, Utah)  2 Stars
January 23, 2009
I have worked in the field of Lean and Kaizen for over 20 years and have a degree in Industrial Engineering. This book is a waste of money. Too thin and not very informative. You can boil down green beans until they are mush. This is mush.

Talk about LEAN! This skinny pamphlet is undernourished! by Hal W. Pray (Holland, mi USA)  1 Stars
January 02, 2008
I am preparing for LEAN certification by SME (Society of Manufacturing Engineering). I have built a library of LEAN and Six Sigma reference and training books. This book is useless.
If you need a pocket guide for mobility go with the The Lean Pocket Guide@ $7.95.

Handy Reference, Perfect for Training Seminar by Dirk J. Willard (Chicago, IL)  4 Stars
January 12, 2007
If I had to give a 1-2 day seminar on the subject, this would be a handy handbook. For that purpose, it should be used, not as a general reference on lean manufacturing.
If this review was helpful, please add your vote. Thanks.
