Tags
Summary
Richard D'Aveni, one of the world's top ten strategic thinkers and a heavyweight scholar influencing the future decisions of leading companies, turns business detective to reveal this epoch-making transformation and answer the industrial questions we are bound to face. From Invisalign and joint implants to self-driving electric buses and the Dubai government's "Office of the Future"... Super Manufacturing starts from examples around us, showing the tremendous changes 3D printing brings to daily life and painting an exciting picture of the future manufacturing revolution.
D'Aveni introduces the astonishing breakthroughs in 3D printing and offers a clear and compelling road map for the "super manufacturing era." He reveals how Fortune 500 giants such as HP, Jabil, Ford, and Siemens are quietly developing this technology, growing toward pan-industrial organizations, and changing the present and future of the global order. Large-scale 3D printing has quietly risen and will have a profound impact on the world economy!
Editor's review
Who it's for
A good fit for
- Manufacturing professionals, especially managers concerned with supply chains and changes in production models
- Readers interested in the commercialization progress of 3D printing and additive manufacturing
- Those who need to judge industry trends and make medium- and long-term plans for companies and projects
- Policy research or investment analysis readers focused on the upgrade path of China's manufacturing industry
Not a good fit for
- Technical beginners wanting to learn 3D printing operations, modeling, or material process details
- Academic readers expecting systematic economic models or extensive statistical simulations
- Hobbyists concerned only with buying and using consumer desktop printers
Reading tips
- Read the case chapters first, then go back to the road map section—it is easier to understand why the author draws those conclusions.
- When reading a company case, pause and map it onto your own industry's supply chain, writing down the links that may be affected.
- List the book's judgments about changes in design, manufacturing, and delivery, and revisit the list periodically to see whether new cases confirm them.
- Consider reading it chapter by chapter with colleagues and organizing a small discussion around "where should China's manufacturing industry go."

About the author
Richard D'Aveni is an American management scholar and a professor at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College, known for his theory of "hypercompetition." His research focuses on how firms should adjust their strategic thinking in an environment where competition moves faster and advantages are hard to sustain, a perspective that has had a lasting influence on the field of strategic management. The library currently holds one work by him, Super Manufacturing, classified under social and cultural studies. Based on the available material, the book extends his concern with industrial change and corporate competition, moving the discussion toward the place of manufacturing in the contemporary economy and society. It should be noted that public information on his life, educational background, and complete bibliography is limited; this introduction relies only on library facts and verifiable public information, highlighting his academic identity, representative theory, and the subject matter of his work for readers' reference.
Liu Hongjiang is a Chinese book author about whom limited public information is available. Two works can currently be confirmed: Daniel Dennett on the Mind and Super Manufacturing. In terms of subject matter, his writing touches on the mind and consciousness as well as on manufacturing and industry, and his books are often categorized under self-help and personal growth or social culture. Overall, his writing tends to make specialized or technical knowledge accessible to general readers, balancing informative content with readability. Because no clear records are available regarding his name in English, nationality, dates of birth and death, or personal experience, judgments about his style and influence can only be preliminary and based on these two works, with further background awaiting additional public sources.
