Factory Physics is a well-written, comprehensive Introduction to Manufacturing Management text that explores historical practices and the natural behavior lawsat work in factories and then examines operating policies and strategic objectives. The text includes enough quantitative material for a thorough course for engineers, as well as an easy-to-read narrative that any general manager or management major can easily understand and apply. Factory Physics is appropriate for the second-level course in manufacturing management at the better business schools, for undergraduate industrial engineering majors, and for professional engineers and managers. It has been thoroughly classroom tested by the authors in a series of two-day industry short courses and in operations management/management science courses at Northwestern.
