THIS BOOK OF GASTROENTEROLOGY IS ONE OF THE BEST'S GASTROENTEROLOGY COMPENDIUM I'EVER REED.IT'S GIVE YOU A GENERAL AND EXPETACULAR OVERVIUW OF PATOLOGIES AND TREATMENT.I'M EXPECTED A NEW EDITION.

Something about this book is truly haunting and spooky, and memorable. It's a fairly simple tale---a group of children go buy penny candy after the last day of school, and each one is transformed while eating their choice of candy to another place, or another state of being! I can remember myself the special feeling of having a paper bag of penny candy of all kinds to eat---each piece seemed special and exciting in its own way, and this book captures that feeling. My sister said this book scared her son, and I think it is a tiny bit scary, as it's a little bizarre and the candy shop owner a little frightening, but in a way that makes the book that much more memorable.

This book is used at my college and it is really soft on hard information.It is full of generalizations and impressive industry jargon but offers little practical information to take into industry. The cost does not justify what you get in my opinion. More case examples would be helpful and more analytical methods described with realistic scenarios could really improve it. I would not recommend it unless absolutely necessary.

The book takes the reader progressively from the most simple concepts to the complexities of logistics. It is true that this is not a quantitive book, but it is a very conceptual and didactic logistics book with many cases and graphs. An internet site provided by the publisher with transparencies, internet site references, and other supports to this book makes it an excellent tool. There is a lot of value in the package offered.

I have used this book as a reference whilst as a student and recommended it as a lecturer. The material it contains is explained in detail and most if not all major areas of Logistics and Supply Chain Management have been covered to some extent.

Topics like ECR that are today considered "new" or "cutting edge" were mentioned in this book.

It does not gloss over theories and calculations but actually walks you through these step-by-step.

I have read and used a number of Logistics or SCM books over the years. If you take all factors into account, including price, which is relevant to most students, you get absolute value for money.

Having found a dusty 1979 Greek translation of this book on the shelves of a Greek bookstore in Athens, and always having loved reading this author, I couldn't resist not to buy it. It was a book that reminded me of David McKee's "Not Now Bernard" in a very simplistic and naive way. One can have fun with this book and the illustrations and font and font size of the text all play a major role in the game of this book. Don't expect too much, but rather sit back and enjoy...
