Summary: "This edition of Understanding Total Quality Management continues to embrace the fundamental principles, criteria, and historical foundations of total quality, while providing a foundation for understanding and applying technical tools. In an effort to provide the best coverage and continue to be a leader in the field, we have made several significant changes to the organization of some of the material in this edition. This was done to eliminate some redundancy and improve the logical flow and topical coverage of the material. Specifically, we have consolidated topics in process management, process improvement tools, and quality in product design into new chapters; have expanded the strategic focus on performance excellence into a separate chapter; and have integrated leadership with building and sustaining high-performance organizations." -- Provided by the publisher
