Students of logistics, transportation and supply chain management, as well as international managers should find this text a useful reference for understanding how cargo is moved around the world. A comprehensive guide that includes the theory and practice of global supply chain management, this book uses real-world issues to make the material as relevant as possible, notwithstanding the fast-paced nature of this industry. Yet, the author also includes the theory and history of global supply chain management to provide a deeper understanding of the intricacies involved. Logistics and transportation are the key elements of business and international trade. Based upon his experience in over 120 countries, including private industry, the military and the United Nations, the author challenges conventional wisdom by discussing the myth of supply chain management and offering penetrating questions on the role of information systems.Product Identifiers
