Reviews

From the reviews: Warehousing in the Global Supply Chain takes us through an almost chronological path in the development of warehouse operations and their positioning within the global supply chain. ... the book provides an adequate introduction to enable the reader to further research the concepts discussed. ... a valuable source of information for engineering, doctoral, and postdoctoral students, and researchers in academic institutions. I agree strongly with this and recommend the book as a reference to this audience. (Bernard Stanley, Interfaces, Vol. 43 (6), November-December, 2013)
