I've mentioned this lean “business novel” before. I'm linking to this ad for the book because I was quoted in an email marketing campaign that Productivity Press sent out about the book. I do believe that the book is helpful, especially for those trying to understand elements of the lean transformation culture or certain daily management practices involved in running a lean line. It's not a perfectly comprehensive lean book, but it does fill an important role in the lean literature.
