Summary: Even with three stars, this is still a must read!
Comment: This is a book all warehouse supervisors, warehouse managers and logistics professionals should read. It puts a spin on logistics. If you could get your manager to read this, I guarantee they will look at logistics in a different light.

Rating: 3
Summary: A poor middleground between The Goal and a textbook
Comment: When I read about "The Goose Chase" when it was first published, my first thought was "Finally - someone wrote about changing Logistics and Distribution like Eli Goldratt wrote about Manufacturing. I was wrong. The author never develops his material into a cohesive blend of entertainment and education. The education material is presented towards the end of the story as a bulleted narrative rather than woven into the fabric of the story. While I wasn't disappointed by the lessons presented I was disappointed by the presentation and the shortcomings of my expectations.

Rating: 5
Summary: Yet Another story of manufacturing after the Goal.
Comment: I personally like Tompkins's writting style in all of his book. Good Chase is another story that capture the logistic problem in layman language, easier to understand. Like The Goal, this book tells the technique and idea through the story. Unlike The Goal, this book has more technical and focus on logistic/distribution system.
