The book offers a solid foundation and is quite thorough in its approach. I enjoyed the blend of theoretical content with practical applications. While it delves into technical details, the language remains accessible. Unfortunately, the delivery took a bit longer than expected, but it was well worth the wait. Overall, it's a very helpful guide for anyone studying logistics.

Got this as part of a bundle on sale. It's a decent intro but lacks depth in some areas. Still, a useful starting point for logistics newbies.

Needed this for my Dallas Metropolitan University class and actually got it free, which was a sweet bonus. The package came really neatly wrapped and wasn’t damaged at all, which I appreciated. Haven’t really gone deep into it yet but flipping through the pages I can tell it’s well made and the print is clean, so reading won’t be a pain. Hoping it helps with homework stuff because switching between texts depending on classes is rough. Overall, pretty happy with how quick I got it plus the quality itself seems solid, so feels like a win so far.
