« Mind without Fear - by Rabindranath Tagore | Main | Eating and Drinking »
On a sunday night at 22:00, I was browsing the internet on 'Learning' and came across this very interesting quote.
Learning is not compulsory... neither is survival
- W. Edwards Deming
I laughed aloud and meanwhile was curious to learn about the man who said this. Where else but wikipedia these days.....?
And to my surprise I learnt that Edwards Deming, being an American, contributed immensely for his work in Japan and that his contribution was vital in Japan producing innovative high-quality products.
He was an American Statistician, College professor and Consultant. He is also credited with improving production in United States during World War II.
There is a good amount of information on him, his philosophy (14 points) and Seven Deadly Diseases!! in Wikipedia - you may want to read! I could not agree with all of it - but it is an interesting read!
