4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Start for Quantitative Methods and Analysis, August 4, 2008

By	Nwankama Nwankama - See all my reviews

For those seeking a general understanding of the major aspects of forecasting, product and service design, strategic capacity planning, quality management, inventory management, scheduling, SCM and so on, this is a great book. I loved the way Stevenson reduced the complex procdedures to easily understable steps. There's no wonder why this has become the most widely used text in Operations Management.

4.0 out of 5 stars International Ed, October 13, 2008

By	A. Martin Stewart "kurvivor" (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Operations Management (Paperback)

If you are considering the int'l ed of this book, do not hesitate. I used it, it was identical to the US hardcover. Page for page every problem was the same. The only difference is the cover.
