As a Vice President at Navistar International and Allied Signal Corporation and currently pricipal of my own consulting business, I gained insight into applying Six Sigma and Mistake Proofing principles in manufacturing that would be useful to others if I knew more about writing and publishing. Dan Poynter's book I found is by far the most clear and concise reference in this direction and I find myself relying on it each step of the way in completing my first book. Do not hesitate to purchase this if you are inclined to write and publish for the first time. It is indespensible. - Earl John Oltesvig
