Lean Production transformed the way that companies think about production and manufacturing. This book provides a new challenge. It arises from the work of the Lean Aerospace Initiative at MIT and provides a new agenda and bold vision for the aerospace industry to take it out of crisis. It also redefines and develops the concept of Lean as a framework for enterprise transformation and this will be relevant and critical for all industries and enterprises.

This is yet another collection from Tom Shields' column as a diarist from The Herald, before old age and infirmity forces him to early retirement. A compendium of fun, insult, and malapropism, Tom Shields Goes Forth delves irreverently into every aspect of Scottish society. Like the author's newspaper diary, this is a quirky, witty commentary on life as we know it. Casting a scrupulous eye over the humdrum aspects of society that we mere mortals take for granted, Tom Shields revels in the inconsistencies and incongruities—and other longish words—of everyday cultural artifacts.

Just when you thought it was safe to go into a bookshop, here is yet another book from that man at the Herald Diary. It is the usual scintillating mixture of anecdote, pith, and fable, and is culled from the Diary columns that Shields and Ken Smith wrote together five days a week at The Herald.

Tom Shields too: more Tom Shields diary

Culled from Tom Shields' Diary column in The Herald, this is a quirky, witty, and irreverent commentary on life in the 1990s. Older, but not much wiser, Shields exposes the quintessential contradiction at the heart of the Scottish Roman Calvinist Nationalist psyche.
