Excellent overview of the topic with just the right amounts of examples and illustrations. It simplifies the boundaries and contexts into understandable sections or chunks of clear information.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good platform for further learning
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 26, 2016

Great for someone wanting to know the basics of operations management - can be used as a platform for further learning. This eBook book does form part of one of the Open University's open learn course - however I thought I'd read ok as a stand alone eBook. Would recommend for anyone wishing to consolidate what they know within operations management or for someone wanting to see if Business Studies may be a suitable option form them as a subject to study.

A small amount of content is stretched out unnecessarily. Very basic introduction. But you can't complain about something that is free
