xxi, [1], 447, [11] pages. Illustrations. Occasional Footnotes. Selected Bibliography. Index. Ex-library. Usual library markings. Book has some wear and soiling. Military acquisition has a long history spanning from ancient times (e.g., blacksmithing, shipbuilding) to modern times. Modern military acquisition is a complex blend of science, management, and engineering disciplines within the context of a nation's law and regulation framework to produce military material and technology. This complexity evolved from the increasing complexity of weapon systems starting in the 20th century. For example, the Manhattan Project involved more than 130,000 people at an estimated cost of nearly $24 billion in 2008 dollars.

Scherer served as the chief economist for the Federal Trade Commission in 1974-76. Since 2006 Scherer has been Emeritus Professor of Public Policy and Corporate Management at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University. His research specialties include industrial economics and the economics of technological change, on which he has many much-cited publications, Scherer has also published concerning patent policy reform. Scherer may be the scholar with the most expertise concerning the theories of former Harvard professor Joseph Schumpeter.…
