International Book Day was recently celebrated. We can say, with certainty, that our learning is only possible due to the ability of books to document data, formulas and facts that are important for our evolution.
For today's article, I prepared a list of 18 industrial management books that every manager, whether responsible for a sector of a large industry or owner of a small industry, should read. Yes, some important books ended up being left out, since the idea of the article is to reduce it to some very specific books that can bring useful knowledge not only in the area of production engineering, but management , entrepreneurship and business.
