Bill Owens, CEO and Vice Chairman, Teledesic Holdings Not in the past 55 years has there been such a crying need for a careful look at the American Defense Industry. The end of the Cold War, the advent of dramatic new technologies leading to the Revolution in Military Affairs, the shift to and dependence on the commercial marketplace, the dramatic mergers of defense industrial giants, and a defense budget which is radically out of balance and very political. What a setting for new understanding and prescriptions ! In this book Susman and O'Keefe have done us a great service, bringing together their considerable experience, insight and innovation, and providing us a sophisticated understanding and many new approaches for problems sorely in need of urgent solutions... a must read for National Security analysts, scholars, decision makers, and a public which needs to understand these issues if America is to stay strong in a very different world. Gwyn Prins, Senior Research Fellow, The Royal Institute of International Affairs This is a timely book. Appearing at the moment when global defence industries are engaged in more extensive and volatile merging, demerging and restructuring than for a generation, it is plain that these processes will have a fundamental - perhaps pivotal - influence on the shape of future security architecture. Susman and O'Keefe have created a well-positioned vantage point from which to watch the dog fights
