This valuable research book was partially funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, the German Research Foundation. So it is no surprise that we are treated to the musings of some of the brightest minds at German universities. But there are also plenty of other contributors from Aalborg to Zagreb. Indeed, just about anyone senior who has ever written about supply chains is in here somewhere.
