This review is from: The Amazing oversight: Total participation for productivity (Hardcover)

The price of this book, ($2-$3 at this writing) suggests you should buy them all and distribute them to everyone you know who is involved in process improvement. It is a collection of fantastic essays (188 pages) from the pioneers in the field: Erwin H Schell, 'Challenge of Viewpoint'; Allan H Mogensen, 'How it All Started'; Lillian M Gilbreth, 'Management's Place in the World Today'; Ben S Graham Sr, 'Paperwork Simplification'; Parvin S Titus (dedicated to David B Porter), 'Five Steps to Improvement'; Whiting Williams, 'What Every Worker Wants'; Herbert F Goodwin, 'Improvement Must be Managed'; Leo B Moore, 'Too Much Management, Too Little Change'; M Scott Myers, 'Every Employee a Manager'; Glenn R Cowan, 'Human Energy for Innovation'; Richard F Weaver, 'The Improvement Program'; Arthur Spinanger, 'Deliberate Methods Change'; Parvin S Titus, 'Means and Meaning of Recognition'; Ben S Graham Jr, 'Career Identity Crisis'.
