With supply chains extending further and further, the Theory of Constraints (TOC) has become more popular. Today’s major companies are using TOC to transition from “push” to “pull” manufacturing. This book demonstrates how TOC breaks down into three strategies organized around what the author refers to as the four Vs: variability, volatility, visibility, and velocity. The second edition features new chapters detailing the conflicts that large manufacturers face and the areas that every manufacturer must address to be successful-materials and supply chain management, project and portfolio management, and production control. Case studies reveal how TOC practices are implemented in the real world.

“The Theory of Taxation and Public Economics” presents a unified conceptual framework for analyzing taxation–the first to be systematically developed in several decades. An original treatment of the subject rather than a textbook synthesis, the book contains new analysis that generates novel results, including some that overturn long-standing conventional wisdom. This fresh approach should change thinking, research, and teaching for decades to come.

Building on the work of James Mirrlees, Anthony Atkinson and Joseph Stiglitz, and subsequent researchers, and in the spirit of classics by A. C. Pigou, William Vickrey, and Richard Musgrave, this book steps back from particular lines of inquiry to consider the field as a whole, including the relationships among different fiscal instruments. Louis Kaplow puts forward a framework that makes it possible to rigorously examine both distributive and distortionary effects of particular policies despite their complex interactions with others. To do so, various reforms–ranging from commodity or estate and gift taxation to regulation and public goods provision–are combined with a distributively offsetting adjustment to the income tax. The resulting distribution-neutral reform package holds much constant while leaving in play the distinctive effects of the policy instrument under consideration. By applying this common methodology to disparate subjects, “The Theory of Taxation and Public Economics” produces significant cross-fertilization and yields solutions to previously intractable problems.

At first glance, the German health care system is a model for other nations. Germany ‘s citizens have universal access to care with free choice of providers, and pay premiums based on their income rather than their health or employment status.

However, just like other nations Germany suffers from rising costs and inconsistent quality, and reform efforts to date have failed to solve these problems. Future reform efforts must make value improvement, defined as patient health outcomes achieved per euro spent, the central goal.

This book lays out an action agenda to move Germany to a high-value system. This starts with reorganizing care around patients and their medical conditions. Other key elements include: true competition based on outcomes, the active role of health plans in maximizing subscriber health, and the integration of private insurance in the risk-pooling system.

The book shows that all these steps are practical and achievable. Moving to a value-based health care system is the only way for Germany to continue to ensure access to excellent health care for everyone.

In recent years, the supply chain has become a key element to the survival and prosperity of organisations in different industry sectors. Organisations dealing in dynamic business environments demand supply chains that support the satisfaction of customer needs. The principles of lean thinking that once permeated standalone organisations have now been transferred to the supply chain, making imperative the development of innovative approaches to supply chain management. Customer-driven Supply Chains: Strategies for Lean and Agile Supply Chain Design reviews the concept of lean thinking and its relationship to other key initiatives associated with supply chain management. Detailed industrial case studies based on the authors experience illustrate the principles behind lean supply chains. Moreover, a series of diagrams are used to illustrate critical concepts and supply chain architectures. Special emphasis is placed on the importance of transferring lean principles from the organisational level to the supply chain level. The theory and principles behind lean supply chains are reviewed. Other concepts related to lean supply chains discussed in the book include: mass customisation, agility, information sharing and the bullwhip effect. A methodology used to measure the performance of supply chains is introduced; this methodology comprises the tools of decision timeline, data-flow diagramming, supply chain value stream mapping and a performance measurement scorecard. Readers will gain a clear picture of the competitive implications of lean supply chains. Customer-driven Supply Chains: Strategies for Lean and Agile Supply Chain Design will be a valuable resource of material to students studying supply chain/operations management as well as researchers in this field. Industry practitioners will learn how to develop sound supply chain strategies that can have a positive impact in their organisation.

This book is intended to enhance the knowledge of MBA students in Operations Management acquired in a basic level course. The case-study material covered relates to a wide spectrum of management activities, and deals with the application of statistical, operations research and system analysis methods to problems categorized under several headings. The book can therefore be used in conjunction with a course in Operations Management or as an independent second course.

Thirty-one real-world cases in the book are the result of several years of research work by the authors, including consultancy assignments, doctoral dissertations, and project assignments of graduate management students. The cases are research oriented and encourage students to think rigorously in an environment of uncertainty of a real-world situation. The cases are comprehensive enough to drill students in devising alternative methods of solutions, and arm them with a deep understanding of decision-making processes instead of merely providing them with a general appreciation of managerial perspective. These realistic cases help in learning applications of quantitative and analytical techniques of management, bringing home to the student the challenges of managing activities throughout the organization.

Though a new title, it is an enlarged version of Dr. Krishnaswamy-s earlier book Cases in Production Operations Management.
