From the Publisher
Jack Kanholm's QS-9000 series was first published in 1995, and became an instantaneous success. The books have established themselves as the reference of choice for understanding, interpreting and implementing the QS-9000 standards. We estimate that 70 to 80 percent of companies certified to QS-9000 have used these books. This is for us an unprecedented market penetration. The QS-9000 books are based on Jack Kanholm's ISO 9000 series, now in its third edition and with over 70,000 copies sold. Based on the success of this and the ISO 9000 series, we also published Jack Kanholm's books on ISO 14000 environmental standards and the new ISO 13485 (EN 46000) quality standards for the medical device industry.
