Free Peeks into Taiichi Ohno’s Book

I think I've mentioned this resource before, the free content that is online in Google Books. Even though I own Taiichi Ohno's book Toyota Production System: Beyond Large-Scale Production, but it so much easier to search the book online.

You can find major portions of the book here on Google Books, to read online. I'm not sure if the whole book is there, but there are certainly worthwhile snippets. Reading just a few of Ohno's words at the start of your work day may provide some great insight or inspiration. Check it out.

If you find other books on there about Lean, post a comment or let me know. I only have a few titles in my Google “library” but I'll add more over time.

What do you think? Please scroll down (or click) to post a comment. Or please share the post with your thoughts on LinkedIn.
