1.0 out of 5 stars Low is low, April 11, 2007
I was attracted by the low price of this book which I thought could include descriptions on how to conduct a benchmarking study. However, I found out that 'low is always low' i.e. you get what you pay for... The book has no ingridient for conducting a study just simple definitions. If you want definitions go to any web site linked to benchmarking rather than paying for such a book.
