Franke and his contributors examine some of the most pertinent management, leadership, and accountability issues related to U.S. national security. Through the use of case studies, they place readers at the center of difficult decisions and enable them to recognize the importance of the issues at hand and their greater policy implications and to discern lessons beyond the cases themselves. An instructor's manual is available upon request.
