The book is colorful and relevant. The first few chapters seem somewhat dry, but the diversity of cases and problems and brainstorming opportunities lead a student to approach every situation in life and at work with an eye for process improvement. I don't feel like it taught me everything, but I like that it got me interested in going further down the operations and supply chain rabbit hole.

If you need one book to understand the wider aspect of the Operations Management, then this is the book! A colorful and well-designed layout, filled with case studies and illustration for the core concepts that anyone in the operations management field will encounter.

Not the most exciting thing on my read list, but I had to read this book for a business class and it was very helpful. The case studies were appropriate and relevant to what I was studying. The formulas included were easy to understand and again were relevant. A lot of business books present material in such a way that is not easily consumable for the average student. I felt like this book understood the audience well and wrote in a language that was appropriate.

I read this book for a course I took during my studies toward the degree of Master of business Administration. operations Management: Processes and Supply Chains is an excellent resource for the manager who wants to stay informed about the wide world of operations and process management. The depth with which the authors go into the operations and process management is breathtaking as the authors delve into concepts such as multifactor productivity rates and other mathematical formulas relevant to operations and process management; the sensitivity with which they write and cover such topics as new products research, and similar concepts is very sensitive but easy to understand.

Honestly, this textbook is just terrible. It takes a moderately hard subject and describes it in such obtuse terms it's almost incomprehensible at times. The writers/editors could have done a lot better. If you want to understand operations, this probably isn't the best text for you (internet sources describe it much better).
