"Intended, both as s reference for current logistics managers as well as a text for students, this updated edition includes new chapters on supply chain segmentation, air and marine transport, and the ever frequent decision to outsource. The latter can take place in a variety of areas, grouped here into the categories of warehousing, transport, and value added services. Although published in the UK and covering European Union legislation, most of the book is internationally applicable, treating standard issues of supply chain management." -Eithne O'Leyne, BOOK NEWS, Inc., "Now in its fourth edition,The Handbook of Logistics and Distribution Managementprovides invaluable technical information and is written in an accessible and informative manner.
