Title: You have to have worked at a japanese company to truly appreciate it
Review: I have worked in the Japanese automotive industry, and I have friends that have as well (both management and lower level at several different companies). This book is invaluable in dispelling the myth of "superior" Japanese management and manufacturing. Many of the lower rated reviews don't seem to understand lean manufacturing and how Japanese culture actually prevents operations from being efficient and hinders creative, effective design.
