First-Time Grantwriters Guide to Success.......2005-09-29

The book is very informative, easy to read, and the chapters aren't overwhelming! They are short but to the point!

Paid for itself in less than a month........2003-03-09

I had to write a grant in order to keep my job. I was clueless, and bought this book sight-unseen because of the title. I couldn't have been happier with the step-by-step format, easy examples and plain language. Anyone, even me, can write a grant with this book. I wrote the grant and got funded! The examples in the book are great. I wrote my grant to cover art supplies for my therapy work. Now that I know how easy it is to write a grant, I've got plans to write more and expand our program.

Book Description

The Encyclopedia of Production and Manufacturing Management is an encyclopedia that has been developed to serve this field as the fundamental reference work. Over the past twenty years, the field of production and operations management has grown more rapidly than ever and consequently its boundaries have been stretched in all directions. For example, in the last two decades, production and manufacturing management absorbed in rapid succession several new production management concepts: manufacturing strategy, focused factory, just-in-time manufacturing, concurrent engineering, total quality management, supply chain management, flexible manufacturing systems, lean production, and mass customization, to name a few. This explosive growth makes the need for this volume abundantly clear.
The manufacturing industry thinks and acts more broadly than it did several decades ago. The most notable change has been the need for manufacturing managers to think in technological, strategic and competitive terms. This is a very favorable development, and it leads to manufacturing success. The entries in this encyclopedia include the most recent technical and strategic innovations in production and manufacturing management.
The encyclopedia consists of articles of varying lengths. The longer articles on important concepts and practices range from five to fifteen pages. There are about 100 such articles written by nearly 100 authors from around the world. In addition, there are over 1000 shorter entries on concepts, practices and principles. The range of topics and depth of coverage is intended to suit both student and professional audiences. The shorter entries provide digests of unfamiliar and complicated subjects. Difficult subjects are made intelligible to the reader without oversimplification.
The strategic and technological perspectives on various topics give this Encyclopedia its distinctiveness and uniqueness. The world of manufacturing today is increasingly competitive. It is apparent that manufacturers must respond to these competitive pressures with technical and strategic innovation. This encyclopedia has been developed to help researchers, students and those in the manufacturing industry to understand and implement these ongoing changes in the field.

This one-volume specialized encyclopedia offers a comprehensive overview of current research and development in production and operations management. Extensive changes in this area have occurred over the last 20 years, introducing new concepts and practices, such as just-in-time manufacturing and total quality management.

Approximately 1,100 articles are included in the encyclopedia. About 1,000 of these are short, paragraph-length entries that introduce new concepts, principles, and practices, such as genetic algorithms. The remaining 100 articles, which are each five to ten pages long, offer up-to-date coverage of complex activities, such as product development. All the major articles and many of the shorter ones provide references to important research on this topic. New concepts and practices are often tied to specific companies, and in many of the articles, "real-world" examples are given.

The editor provides myriad ways of finding needed information. The table-of-contents includes a list of all articles in the encyclopedia, arranged alphabetically by the article headings. A separate list of the lengthier, major articles are provided, also arranged alphabetically by the article heading. Some keyword terms mentioned in the articles (e.g., Valdez principles and MAINOPT) do not have their own entries, but they can be located by using the subject-name index.

Some of the additional indexes are unique reference sources in themselves. Most notable is an index of the "real-world" companies and organizations featured in the articles. The references cited by these articles lead the reader to a prepared list of articles that are usually scattered across a variety of trade journals. The editor included two bibliographies, both composed of the references cited by the articles. The first is arranged alphabetically by author, the second by topic, allowing the reader to search for additional information by both author and subject.

This encyclopedia is important addition to any academic library supporting teaching and research in business or engineering, and it would be useful for managers in company or organizational settings. It not only details innovations in the area of production and manufacturing management, but also links them to related concepts and practices through extensive cross-referencing of entries. The encyclopedia is a bit pricey ..., but it is a well-constructed, well-written publication that offers state-of-the-art coverage.

Step up! Step up!
Step up and see such acts of
awe and oddity!

A bizarre circus creeps into Nod's Limbs in the dead of night, bringing with it caravans of strange and wonderful entertainers. Edgar and Ellen soon find kindred spirits among the fire-eaters and escape artists. But will the mischievous twins join the circus when it leaves town, and so avoid the wrath of Heimertz? In this topsy-turvy world of smoke and mirrors, nothing is quite what it seems....

A good primer.......2003-04-10

This is the second guide I've bought from Wetfeet (the other was Careers in entertainment), and so far, they haven't let me down. The editorial team is top-notch over there. they really do a good job at helping me visualize and place myself within specific jobs as well as understand the full spectrum of what's possible for someone with my background (in PR) to cross-over into in terms of job roles. i'm now pretty sure the Ad world is for me. thanks a bunch for boiling all of the info floating around out there down into a succinct guide that gives me the most important stuff to prepare me for my interviews.

A Great Introduction to the Biz.......2003-03-05

I really enjoyed reading this informative guide. Not only was it packed with helpful information, but it was written in a fun, upbeat style that didn't put me to sleep and got me really excited about my decision to change careers.

The vocab section was a great way to get accustomed to the industly lingo. I'll sound like a pro by the time my interviews come up. The company profiles provided a good start for company research and the job descriptions helped me get a good idea of where I want to be.

This is a great buy for anyone thinking about a career in advertising.
