Review:

'Realistic, fun ... Educational' Business Age 'Not only is Goldratt a fine novelist, his management thinking challenges the norm and provides the reader with much food for thought, as well as ideas for dealing with a host of everyday situations.' The Engineer '... a refreshing and easily digestible style ... for those who want to develop their own innovative solutions rather than apply the quick fix.' BICS Control 'The inspirational ideas in this book are rigorously tested using reason ... an apt reminder that winning in business is not a matter of luck, but of detailed planning allied to vision.' Financial Training Review 'Once I picked up this book I could hardly put it down again as the concepts of the Theory of Constraint - The Thinking Processes, run right through the book.'
