Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book documents the development of concrete ships from their inception in France in the mid-1800s through to their use as barges in the Panama Canal during the 1900s. It explores how materials such as iron, steel, and wood gave way to concrete, and the advantages and challenges of concrete shipbuilding, particularly with regard to buoyancy and overcoming shearing forces. The author analyzes the contributions of Dutch, Italian, and German engineers, and describes the innovations of the twentieth century, including the use of reinforced concrete, the development of cellular systems, and the construction of larger, ocean-going vessels. The book concludes by emphasizing the significance of concrete ships as a viable and economical alternative to traditional ship materials, especially in times of high demand and limited resources.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. [4], 220 pages. DJ has wear, tears, and scuffs. George Steele was a computer consultant. Paul Kircher joined the UCLA Anderson School faculty as an assistant professor of accounting in 1952 and was a professor of accounting at the time of his retirement in 1986. Kircher earned both an M.B.A. (1947) and Ph.D. (1949) in business administration from the University of Michigan. As a consultant to the General Accounting Office in 1959, Kircher helped to write the first report by the comptroller general on the use of electronic computers by the federal government. He also served as consultant to the state controller, advising on the first installation of electronic computers for California. Through his ties to IBM, Kircher was instrumental in bringing the first computer to the business school at UCLA. He was also one of the first members of the management faculty to discover the power of word processing and introduced many of his colleagues to the world of personal computing in the early eighties. This book challenges the quality of our defense, and of our economic position rather than calling for more quantity. It pointedly cites the failure of our missiles to work reliably; the hypercomplexity of our technical designs; the Russian economic offensive and the need for more effective automation and electronic computers; and other major items currently capturing the headlines. Explored, too, is the probable effect of radioactivity from a hydrogen bomb burst on electronic systems in bombers, missiles, and CONELRAD. Problems of management and government, such as complex organizational structures and the multiplicity of committees in the Department of Defense are also probed in detail. To combat these critical problems, the book sets forth constructive programs that will help executives function more effectively.…
