Toyota Production System: Beyond Large-Scale Production17 reviews
Taiichi Ohno

Productivity Press, 1988

Tell it like it is
There are many myths around the Toyota Production System (TPS). Ohno Taiichi merits my deepest respects, considering he was able almost a half century ago to observe and learn from others. Considering the simple target given to him, to "catch up with America" he studied in-depth the work of Ford and recognised the idea of copying the US supermarket system for his operational purpose. The book ...

A Super Book!
I recommend that everyone dealing with mechanics get a copy of this gem, and read it! It is the most amazing technical book I have read!

Breakthrough Technology Project Management, 2e (E-Business Solutions)24 reviews
Bennet P. Lientz, Kathryn P. Rea

Butterworth-Heinemann, 2001

realistic and usable guide to IT projects
Our organization has reviewed over 50 books in IT and general project management from the view of usability and useful methods for a multiple project, complex environment. We found books like Schwabe and Menche somewhat useful, but very limited in dealing with the actual problems faced in projects. There was just too much introductory material. This book, on the other hand, is very useful in that ...

Catherine Seda

New Riders Press, 2007

Great .. Just Great
Just when I was ready to wipe the dust off of my Internet Marketing Books to "brush up" from just a year ago, out comes this book. After reading this book, I realize now that my "other" books seem antiquated. I have no need for them now as "Win Spiders" has introduced me to the next generation of Web Buzz and Marketing. Catherine Seda really has her finger on the pulse as this book opens ...
  
  











  



  
Fast Fourier Transform and Its Applications (Prentice-Hall Signal Processing Series)14 reviews
E. Brigham

Prentice Hall, 1988

An accessible examination of the FFT great for self study
This book is not just another terse math or signal processing book. It tries to provide an alternative to standard DSP techniques that develop the FFT adequately enough, but show nothing about applications and have the student believing that "The Butterfly Element" is something he can buy an armful of at an electronics store and assemble. All developments in this book use graphical techniques and ...

Administrator's Guide to e-Commerce13 reviews

Prompt (DPI - 8/01), 1999

Great book for getting my staff up to speed
I found this book to provide a level-set for my staff, who is working on the definition of our websites, and what we could reasonably expect with the resources onhand. This book gave us hands-on guidelines and advice from experience we could use for getting our site completed in the minimum amount of time with the least disconnects between what we wanted and what we ended up creating. ...
  
  











  



  
Ferrets, Rabbits, and Rodents: Clinical Medicine and Surgery12 reviews

W.B. Saunders Company, 1997

THE BEST book on this subject
This book is the absolute best resource on the medicine of these species. The book is easy to follow and find specific information as necessary. Most illustrations are quite useful, although in black and white. The book is organized mostly by taxonomic groups. However, the book seems to repeat itself in some chapters as well as in different chapters, and sometimes, finding information may be ...
  
  











  



  
Statistics for Experimenters: An Introduction to Design, Data Analysis, and Model Building13 reviews
George E. P. Box, William G. Hunter, ...

John Wiley & Sons, 1978

Outstanding book, but you should buy the newer edition, not this version
All of the reviews on this book are generally consistent in their praise for the book and the authors. I do not have any points to add to the discussion other than this: It is a credit to this version of Statistics for Experimenters that it has remained relevant throughout the years as a classic introductory text that has kept selling consistently since it was released in the 1970's. ...

The Values-Based Safety Process: Improving Your Safety Cultu
I reviewed this book along with four others by other BBS consultant authors and I find this to be the best. Terry McSween has written a very usable book complete with forms, checklists. and essential elements necessary for doing your own process, if you are intending to anyway. I also found the section on safety incentives to be very helpful and neccessary. One is likely to do a poor BBS ...

American families trust that the products our babies use, from strollers to cribs to swings, will keep them safe. Unfortunately, we found out the truth in the most terrible way.

We can make an order from a wireless hand held device and pick it up within minutes. This book is made to order if you want to see where wireless is going. Easton is well researched and writes to inform.

Excellent introduction to symmetric and PKC cryptography
The basics of the usage of symmetric and asymmetric cryptography are explained here step by step in a precise way visualized by clear drawings of a sender, (evil) observer and recipient. Starting with the simplest case and showing what's faulty about it, the author develops an understanding of why it needs message digestion, public and private keys and either Kerberos or a certification ...
  
  











  



  
Product Strategy for High Technology Companies11 reviews
Michael E. McGrath

McGraw-Hill, 2000

targeted for core products at large companies
I love this book: the concept of a "vector" for product development is a terrific way to think about competition. IMHO, this book is a must-read for all product managers, product marketers and people involved in strategic decisions, i.e. all senior executives. That said, speaking as a five-time startup engineer, the advice and examples in this book seem geared towards the core product lines in ...
