About this listen

In this classic text, Taiichi Ohno—inventor of the Toyota Production System and Lean manufacturing—shares the genius that sets him apart as one of the most disciplined and creative thinkers of our time. Combining his candid insights with a rigorous analysis of Toyota's attempts at Lean production, Ohno's book explains how Lean principles can improve any production endeavor.

A historical and philosophical description of just-in-time and Lean manufacturing, this work is a must-listen for all students of human progress. On a more practical level, it continues to provide inspiration and instruction for those seeking to improve efficiency through the elimination of waste.

This is an abridged version, but that is not communicated anywhere in the description. This is an occasional problem on Audible where they will only record abridged versions of non-fiction books and not tell you.
