Operations Management by Michael A Lewis

The book presents the state of the art in OM as an exhibit, each chapter a thematic 'gallery' (process; planning and control; people; strategy and measurement; technology) curated to illustrate the breadth of the field and connect contemporary scholarship with its extended lineage.

'Collating the "state of the art" for a diverse field like OM, that has always combined a wide range of social science and engineering scholarship, is a really challenging taskThis engaging book succeeds by adopting a novel perspective inspired by the process of curation in the visual arts. The reader is engaged in detailed discussion of the past, present, and potential future of OM research though a series of chapters, each framed by analogous reflections on some extraordinary artistic masterpieces.' — Professor Matthias Holweg, American Standard Companies Professor of Operations Management, Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, UK

'Regardless of whether you are new PhD student or experienced faculty member, or just someone who wants to get to grips with where the field of Operations Management "is at", I strongly recommend you read Michael Lewis’ new text as it paints a stimulating picture of the "state of the art".' — Professor Andy Neely, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Enterprise and Business Relations, University of Cambridge, UK

Michael A. Lewis is Professor of Operations and Supply Management at the University of Bath. He is the author of numerous articles and books.
