Mahoney's book can be considered an excellent reference work for individuals in the field of manufacturing literature. It contains information on almost every manufacturing concept or idea presented in the last 50 years. The author, R. Michael Mahoney's, years of experience and training as an engineer are evident throughout the work. The book is written in a straightforward style. Material is presented matter-of-factly. Many explanations are provided in the form of over a hundred charts, graphs, tables, Venn diagrams, and mathematical equations. "High-Mix, Low-Volume Manufacturing" is not a casual read. It is meant to be analyzed and studied in order to gain the insights described within the text. Mahoney details concepts and ideas in order to help the reader understand the techniques and tools needed to successfully operate in a high-mix, low-volume manufacturing operation. The best approach to the work is to read it in stages. This allows the reader to fully grasp and understand the topics discussed prior to reading to another section. The work is well positioned as a reference book
