Content: I expected a short review of lean Six Sigma, but mostly found a quick reminder of some of the basic fundamentals of Six Sigma. For the long time Quality professional, this book is an expanded reminder of the foundational aspects of our movement. For the investment of time, it is worth while, however "What is Lean Six Sigma?" is more for the Six Sigma novice.

Content: I'm sorry but this book lacks any depth at all. I would recommend not buying this book. This is superficial coverage and should only be read by those who know absolutely nothing about quality management.

Content: Excellent Lean Six Sigma overview book - suitable to hand out during Yellow Belt or Green Belt Training as a support to the participants. As a Certified Black Belt, I can confirm the material is correct (for the experts) & can be understood (for the folk new to LSS).
