Kaizen Express, written by John Shook, the first non-japanese manager to have worked for Toyota Motor Corporation in Japan and Toshiko Narusawa, who translated several of the other books of John Shook to Japanese, is a unique book, because it is designed as a bilingual book to help the Japanese and English speakers working better together. Not only it explains the tools of TPS in more details than most books, but it also explains the underlying philosophy. In short, a concise, clear description of the elements of Lean in a logical order for both beginners and advanced practitioners.
