4.0 out of 5 stars Great reference on warehouse management, May 2, 2003
By 
Dave Piasecki (Kenosha, WI United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Warehouse Management Handbook (Hardcover)
I recommend this book primarily for the extensive content. At over 900 pages, this book is enormous. Though you may want more detailed information on certain topics, you will at least find some useful information on virtually every topic related to managing a warehouse. The book is actually a collection of chapters written by different authors. Each chapter can be read independently of the others, which makes this a very good reference book.
Because of the multiple authors, there is some redundancy between chapters and inconsistency in the quality of the content.
If you're responsible for managing a warehouse, you should have this book on your bookshelf.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Warehousing Handbook, September 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Warehouse Management Handbook (Hardcover)
I've bought this handbook because I needed it for my logistics class. It has a lot of informations and really easy to understand. I think there is an online version of it free of charge. Just perform a web search using the ISBN number. I would like to recommend it to others.
