Summary: Seminal Work in Supply Chain Design and Implementation
Review: Levi's work is probably the very best supply chain book ever written. It cuts through much of the confusion surrounding supply chain design and optimization, and covers this complex, deep, and extremely substantive field in a comprehensive, instructive, and highly effective way.

Summary: The definitive book on supply chain management
Review: The 1st edition of this book, authored by three leading scholars and consultants in the important, fast developing field of supply chain management, won several awards and high critical acclaim from professional associations, scholars, and managers. The 2nd edition has addressed the few gaps in the the original edition, noticed mainly by by those who, like me, used the book to teach university level courses. Thus, in the new edition, anything complex (especially, quantitative ideas) is explained even more clearly and thoroughly than in the 1st edition. The managerial implications of research findings are spelled out even better, with more examples. Short, insightful discussion questions have been added following each chapter, and there are several new, interesting case studies in several chapters. Valuable new material has also been added, e.g., research findings and examples on how to design win-win supply chain contracts, and up-to-date material on the impact of e-commerce and information technology on supply chain management. This book will be of value to all managers, but probably most to managers at middle and senior levels, as it provides a clear, coherent view of the entire subject while emphasizing strategic and tactical level decisions and planning. The authors have made a truly important contribution to the understanding and practice of supply chain management.

Summary: Highly Recommended
Review: This is a great book...for all the reasons mentioned in all reviews you find here. I especially love the accompanying CD containing the Beer Game and the Risk Pooling Game - both excellent at illustrating most of the problems explained in the book

Summary: Could be better, not quantitative
Review: When I first look at the description of this book, I thought this book would come with more math models than any other SCM books. Once I have it, the models that they show in the book is not surprisingly new to me. The authors might want to use the traditional method to solve the complex SCM problem. So if you're looking for quantitative SCM book, please skip this book. In contrast, I found many cases in this book is quite useful. Moreover, this book is very well organized, i.e., start with case and develop basic idea to lead readers more understanding. One of the best books in SCM
