5.0 out of 5 stars Still the best modern manufacturing practices book in print., April 9, 1998

This review is from: Just-In-Time for America: A Common Sense Production Strategy (Hardcover)

Ken Wantuck's " Just In Time for America" provides one of the simplest explanations of how all of the Modern Manufacturing Practices fit together. While the term Just In Time has recently gained a bad reputation. The ideas expressed in this book are still valid today. This is the book for the people who will actually implement change on the shop floor. Anyone with even basic english skills will be able to comprehend the topics discussed, while those with advanced degrees will find a practical tool to assist them in training. Give this book to your employees to read. Wantuck has included clear graphics and pictures of plants where his actual process improvements have been implemented.
