Review
"This book does exactly what it says on the tin. It is perfect as a starting point for essay writing for student, or as a reference bok for those working in logistics."- Logistics and Transport Focus
"Now in its fourth edition, The Handbook of Logistics and Distribution Management provides invaluable technical information and is written in an accessible and informative manner. The new chapters on supply chain segmentation, air transport, maritime transport and outsourcing are a welcome addition. I would recommend this as one of the most readable books available for logistics and supply chain students and professionals around the world."- Dorthea Carvalho, Director of Professional Development, The Chartered Institute of Logists and Transport
"Intended, both as s reference for current logistics managers as well as a text for students, this updated edition includes new chapters on supply chain segmentation, air and marine transport, and the ever frequent decision to outsource. The latter can take place in a variety of areas, grouped here into the categories of warehousing, transport, and value added services. Although published in the UK and covering European Union legislation, most of the book is internationally applicable, treating standard issues of supply chain management."

Handbook of Logistics and Distribution Management
Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
