About the author
James M. Moore, also listed as James Mendon Moore, was an American industrial engineering educator and author born in 1925. His best-known book, Plant Layout and Design, was first published in 1962 and became a recognized text on factory organization, production planning, equipment placement, storage, and related topics in industrial engineering.
Reference listings and library records connect him closely with teaching and academic work in engineering, and biographical directories describe him as an industrial engineering educator and consultant. Those same records note his military service during World War II and list honors including the Bronze Star and Purple Heart.
While detailed biographical information appears to be limited online, Moore's published work has remained the clearest part of his legacy. His writing stands out for turning complex planning problems into something structured, practical, and useful for students and professionals alike.
