Editor's review

This is an applied textbook in third-party logistics. While maintaining a complete theoretical system, the second edition highlights the two main lines of "innovation" and "application," aligns its content with the major's teaching syllabus and training program, and incorporates certain features of the "dual system" model. This revision makes substantive structural adjustments: management information systems is merged into the end of Chapter 5 as Section 5.7; the original Chapter 6 content on e-commerce is integrated into Chapter 7, which also adds content on third-party logistics finance; and the industry development analysis in Chapter 8 is cut, merged, and updated. These changes make the logical chain linking information systems, e-commerce, finance, and industry development clearer and reduce overlap. The cases and industry analysis both connect with prior and subsequent material and broaden horizons, making the book suitable for chapter-by-chapter classroom teaching and as a companion reader for courses in logistics management and supply chain management. For readers who need to understand the operations, development strategies, and industry environment of third-party logistics enterprises, it provides a fairly systematic framework, though it should be supplemented with the latest industry data and policy developments.

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • Undergraduates in logistics management and supply chain management who need a systematic course in third-party logistics
  • Teachers at applied undergraduate or vocational colleges seeking a textbook aligned with the teaching syllabus
  • Grassroots managers and operations staff at logistics enterprises seeking to organize their knowledge of third-party logistics
  • Students preparing to enter the logistics industry who need an overall understanding of the industry and its enterprises

Not a good fit for

  • Readers seeking cutting-edge academic research; this book follows a textbook structure
  • Practitioners seeking real-time industry data and the latest policy analysis, who will need additional sources
  • General readers with no logistics background, for whom the terminology and framework are a high barrier

Reading tips

  1. Read Chapters 1 to 4 first to build basic concepts, then proceed through the revised Chapters 5 to 8 in order
  2. At the end of each chapter, use the review questions to organize the knowledge framework and mark cross-cutting points related to information systems, e-commerce, and finance
  3. When reading the industry development analysis, consult recent logistics industry reports for comparison
  4. For classroom use, divide by chapter and treat Chapter 7 as a focused discussion of strategy and models

About the author

张旭辉 Author

Zhang Xuhui is an author about whom limited public information is available. Two works by this author are included in the collection: The Complete Works of the Two Cheng Brothers (2 volumes) and Third-Party Logistics (2nd Edition). These two books span rather different subject areas. The former belongs to the field of Eastern philosophy and centers on the writings of the Northern Song Neo-Confucian scholars Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi, while the latter falls under exam-related categories and deals with professional knowledge of third-party logistics. Judging from the available works, Zhang Xuhui's writing and editorial work covers both traditional intellectual texts and practical textbooks, serving readers who study classic Chinese philosophy as well as students preparing for exams or learning logistics. Because information such as dates of birth and death, nationality, education, and professional experience is not clearly recorded, a detailed personal biography cannot yet be given, and the author's profile can only be outlined on the basis of these works' categories.

杨勇攀 Author

Yang Yongpan is an author of Chinese books about whom limited public information is available; two of his works are included in the database. Judging from these works, his writing spans two applied fields: logistics management and e-commerce. One book deals with third-party logistics and serves as a basic textbook in that area, while the other examines e-commerce consumer loyalty from the perspective of virtual social capital and has a scholarly research orientation. The considerable difference between the two subjects suggests an interest in combining practical concerns with theoretical discussion, with writing that emphasizes conceptual clarification and framework building, likely aimed at students and researchers in logistics and e-commerce. As his dates of birth and death, nationality, education, and professional positions are not recorded, further biographical details cannot be provided; readers may turn to the above works to understand his areas of focus and writing style.
