Description: About this productProduct InformationWritten by two highly experienced authors, this new text provides a concise, global approach to logistics and supply chain management. Featuring both a practical element, enabling the reader to 'do' logistics (select carriers, identify routes, structure warehouses, etc.) and a strategic element (understand the role of logistics and supply chain management in the wider business context), the book also uses a good range of international case material to illustrate key concepts and extend learning.Product IdentifiersPublisherWiley & Sons, Incorporated, JohnISBN-100470066342ISBN-139780470066348eBay Product ID (ePID)65953008Product Key FeaturesFormatPaperbackLanguageEnglishDimensionsWeight25 OzWidth7.5in.Height0.9in.Length9.8in.Additional Product FeaturesDewey Edition22Table of ContentForeword.Preface.About the Authors.About the Contributors.Acknowledgements.PART ONE: LOGISTICS AND SUPPLY CHAIN CONTEXT.1.
