Biographie de l'auteur

Warren Eister grew up in Sunbury, Pennsylvania and received a chemical engineering degree from Bucknell University in 1940. While employed by Dupont at what became the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, he was involved in the development of plutonium production, a chemical element not in his college text books. In 1984 he retired from the Department of Energy where he was involved in the development of plutonium waste disposal. During that time he managed technology development for many nuclear applications for several corporations and government agencies. When he retired he proposed to teach an introduction to management for engineers, which evolved into this introduction to the methodical society for high school students. This evolution resulted from applying the methodical approach of engineering that transforms science into technology of benefit to society.
