Logistics Clusters: Delivering Value and Driving Growth

This book was a fun read for my college Logistics class. It turns the know how of modern day logistics into plain English. The author has proven himself to be very knowledgeable in the subject as there are details, examples, and analogies of how goods get from A to B today.

Fascinating look at logistics clusters and what they mean for business and industry actors located nearby, or considering where to locate. Important reading for those seeking careers in logistics, or in those businesses dependent on logistics. Understanding geographic opportunity is an important component, and very interesting are the chapters on the business opportunities that come from understanding movement of materials and goods, and the transportation channels used.

Great book on how logistics works. How business works. It's impressive to listen how much of an impact logistics has in certain areas. Tons of great insider information on how companies work. A must read!!

For anyone curious about logistics clusters, this book talks about the successful and fails and all the important factors that people in the industry should know. I loved the history part of the book, with the Renaissance examples and how the model still applies in todays world. This book is a new classic.

Logistic clusters solve many distribution issues and provide expertise not economically possible outside the cluster. This book provided me many Ideas that I will use in the near future.
