5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, balances concepts and details very nicely, 8 Mar 1999

By A Customer

Anybody interested in reducing manufacturing cycle times should read this book (among others) to get some great examples of what can be done. It has many very specific examples and strong fundamental concepts. Very easy to read as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best on the Toyota Production Systems, 10 Mar 1998

By A Customer

The book covers the basic concepts often associated with Toyota Production System. Suzaki takes it one step farther by adding his own creativity and experiences as a lean manufacturing consultant. This is one of the best and most inspirational books I have read on the subject of continuous improvements. ~ Rhett A. Cooper
