Praise for Lean Accounting Best Practices for Sustainable Integration
Anyone involved in a lean transformation inevitably bumps up against the vagaries of the accounting systems that reward overproduction and waste and seem to punish true improvement.
We wonder what would happen if the accountants actually came to the production floor and witnessed firsthand the havoc created by their systems. This volume gathers together some of the best thinkers to take a critical look at traditional cost accounting and defines a path
forward to 'lean accounting.'"
--Jeff Liker
Professor of Industrial and Operations Engineering
University of Michigan
"Joe Stenzel has put together a timely compendium of writings from thought leaders in lean accounting. The viewpoints in this fine book are diverse and yet proclaim a consistent message: that conventional management accounting is broken--and here is how to fix it."
--Richard J. Schonberger
President
Schonberger & Associates
"If you are serious about understanding and implementing Lean Accounting in conjunction with your Lean Enterprise journey, this book will illuminate the specific techniques, but more importantly, will explain the cultural changes that are a prerequisite for success."

Kerala Mathematics : History And Its Possible Transmission To Europe
Kerala Mathematics : History And Its Possible Transmission To Europe
by George Gheverghese Joseph
328 pages | PDF | 104 MB
In the history of mathematics the invention of calculus and the passage to infinity are seen as major benchmarks in the creation of modern or advanced mathematics. A principal focus of this volume is tracing the beginnings of modern mathematics to India notably Kerala and how these ideas and techniques may have been transmitted to Europe.
It such transmission proves to be significant it would help to deconstruct the prevailing Eurocentric account of the development of modern mathematics. To that end invitations were extended to a group of distinguished historians mathematicians educators linguists philosophers and others to make presentations at a two day workshop held in Trivandrum.
And this is reflected in the breadth and depth of the papers presented in this volume.
