Although I have not used this as a text, it has given me much better insights into how warehouses differ from production systems and practical, real world techniques for designing them. Peter Weill and Maryanne Broadbent's book on leveraging the IT resource would be my choice. Unfortunately there is no English summary of this book on the web. Information Ecology by Davenport is my choice, followed by Balanced Scorecard by Kaplan and Norton. Very timely but also speaks to some fundamental issues.
Great minds think alike, or fools never differ.
I do the same thing in a Communications class I teach and have the students do stand up book reports for an executive who has no time to read the book. That way I know that all of them have heard about at least 20 books even if they only open one. I don't have this year's list compiled yet, but will by the middle of January.
