"The highest award any Japanese business can achieve is the Dr. Edward Deming award. He helped turn Japan around after WWII and helped turn that nation into the nation we USED to be. Inspirational and informative for any business owner on how to properly run a company."
"Written by a fan and student of the Dr., the first half of the book is mainly an infomercial. It'll say what businesses are doing wrong and how using Dr. Deming's method they would thrive, but it doesn't actually say what that method is. Toward the end it gets a little more into details but even then it's largely saying, "do what Deming does" without really explaining what that is. Still, there are a few really good, and apparently radical, ideas concerning management that I think most managers would benefit from trying."
"Probably the best business book I've read - the key message of looking at process rather than pinning the blame tends to be lost among the trendier business advice du-jour"
