N2  - This book is a collection of chapters on issues we face today in the world of Supply Chain Management. While there are a number of college text books related to specific areas within logistics and supply chain issues, there are very few general supply chain management "trends" books. Thus, this book consists of seven dynamic, current and informative chapters that cover a variety of cutting-edge supply chain topics. There is an untapped market to create a supply chain and logistics book to be used in college classes that uses examples in the United States. This interdisciplinary book is of use to both graduate students and professionals working in the field because of its cutting-edge approach to emerging global issues. The book contains new, original research papers written by academics from the fields of engineering, transportation, information and decision systems, marketing, and, of course, supply chain management and logistics
