Page paper quality, photocopy pictures and illustrations are not professional quality. Price is questionable given printing quality.

3.0 out of 5 stars Motion & Time Study for FAT Manufacturing, October 7, 2000
By 
Brice W Seifert (Mississippi State University, MS) - See all my reviews
Although this book has valuable information regarding traditional time and motion techniques, it does a poor job of addressing the lean manufacturing aspect. In today's dynamic manufacturing environment, the Industrial Engineer is forever pressed to increase throughput and reduce inventories rather than study time standards in infinite detail. Given these constraints, the fusion of more contemporary lean manufacturing techniques with traditional time and motion studies was severely lacking in this textbook.

With the concept of lean manufacturing being continuously improved, manufacturing will have a high % of efficiency. My goal is to see manufacturing processes have a 100% efficiency. This is a good book to use in undersstanding the big picture of lean manufacturing.
