Book Description

0749454075 978-0749454074 May 28, 2009 Third Edition

The third edition of Logistics and Retail Management has been substantially updated to take account of recent developments in retail logistics.  Retailers have recognized the need to have more involvement in supply chains and noted that benefits can be achieved in both service levels and cost reduction.  This book brings together well-known academics and practitioners, who share their research, ideas and experience of current thinking on supply chain management in retail.

 

Reflecting the changing dimensions of retail supply chains and logistics, the third edition includes new chapters on availability and environmental issues combined with substantially revised chapters on other topics.

1.0 out of 5 stars Awesome if you're looking for abstract and boring conceptual analysis, December 2, 2010
This review is from: Logistics and Retail Management: Emerging Issues and New Challenges in the Retail Supply Chain (Paperback)
One of the most pretentious book on the subject I have seen. The pages are a succession of acronyms, high level and theoretical concepts. It is a basically a summary of all the research that has been conducted in that industry over the past 30 years... Fantastic if you intend to learn/teach about retail theory/history.

However, if you are looking for real life applicable concepts, look elsewhere. The few examples highlighted in the book are poor, and provide little insight. They seem to be taken out of a newspaper... sad really!

Do yourself a favor save your cash.
