“This book is about the science of services. It has a collection of experiences from the last decade in Japan in service science. … Readers with interests in applications of computing technologies will find many chapters useful. Each chapter can be read independently.” (Maulik A. Dave, Computing Reviews, computingreviews.com, October, 2016)
