The Sayings of Shigeo Shingo: Key Strategies for Plant Improvement (Japanese Management)

Very little new info. Other books also keep repeating same thing.TPS From an Industrial Eng' Viewpoint and SMED are the only two Shingo books needed.Everything else is repetition.Update: 2/24/10. I just received Fundamentals Principles of Lean Manufacturing, by Shingo. It's a hard read due to the writing and labels Shingo placed on the lean tools, principles but, I think it's a very good book for the practitioner. Similar to OHNO's books; requires the student to do shop floor activity and capture their own learning. Then the book has more meaning and will help codify our own learning.thanks to the publisher.

The best of lean is found here...great collection

he is a legend

Excellent Read very helpful

Shigeo Shingo details the approach to improve unefficient equipments. The technical approach and the people change management are combined and explained in numerous convincing examples. This book is a must to anyone starting as manufacturing engineer (project, maintenance production ...)

As an industrial engineer i have to say that Shingo has helped me to grow in my work, evetheres alway something you can learn from his methods and this book is pretty good at the time of consulting when you are making imporvement in your workplace.

Contém muitas mensagens significativas e ainda muito atuais do prof. Shingo

It was easy to read and made me want to read more of Dr Shingo's books
