Description
This book examines the management of high technology from the dual perspectives of the commercial markets and military national-interest missions. The author's thesis is that the successful management of technology has as much to do with the survival of the country as the success and survival of any particular corporation or industry. He studies thirty real-life applications of technology management and, using these examples, develops strategies for success both in commercial and governmental areas. His examples are evenly divivded between military, space and communications missions, and hi-tech products and services markets.
