4.0 out of 5 stars Good Text. Beware the typos!
From a student's perspective, this is a very good textbook on manufacturing. I must give a warning however to both students and professors, however. This book is chock-full of typos. I'm not talking small, grammar-related typos; I'm talking about significant typos such as formula errors: variables missing, variables inside parentheses that should be outside them, etc...

4.0 out of 5 stars Fundamentals of Modern Manufacturing, May 4, 1998
