Reviews
"The authors have assembled a comprehensive introduction of industrial engineering with the inclusion of both traditional and emergent areas. Other books tend to give a shotgun view, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the field, and provides an excellent starting point for anyone new to the field." --David A. Nembhard, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, USA "... an excellent introduction to the history, profession, processes and practice of industrial engineering... The depth is relevant for a single introductory course in industrial engineering for engineers or as a supplement to a full industrial engineering curriculum..." --Brian Peacock, Retired / Professor SIM University
