- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Two decades in the making, this extraordinarily precise, elaborate, & comprehensive book is *the* Western manual on evolving a TPS - strictly Toyota Production System, which can today with much justice be read as Total Production System. Every other book on the topic may well be dispensable. This one simply isn't. Reference to a generation of industrialists.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Toyota Manufacturing process is absolutely brilliant. Sadly, many companies fail because of it. They take the pieces that they think will best suit them while disregarding the rest. The Toyota Way is meant to be used as one, large, cohesive philosophy. You cannot pick and choose in order to get it to work.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5High level review of key principles used within Toyota that drives superb quality and management.
