by Shingo. Shigeo Shingo was the mastermind behind the Toyota Production System, constantly experimenting and thinking on how to improve. There are a lot of books about the Toyota Production System, but this is one of the most useful for those actually attempting to implement elements of this system.

by Freddy Ballé and Michael Ballé is the first book to comprehensively introduce all the Lean tools by means of a vivid personal story showing how hearts and minds are won over. It presents all the key Lean principles, ranging from well-known ideas such as pull and flow, to lesser-known yet equally important principles such as jidoka and heijunka. The book also reveals Lean as a system-using a realistic story to show how the principles are interrelated and how they lead to useful tools such as kanban or 5S.
