This is a paperbound reprint of a 2002 book. The Spacelab project, a collaboration between the US and Europe, seemed a perfect example of technology transfer from the former to the latter, but Johnson (space studies, U. of North Dakota) had trouble understanding why the Europeans were interested in what was actually rather mundane Apollo technology. He discovered that what excited them was learning how to manage such a gigantic project. He examines how scientists and engineers created a process to coordinate large-scale technology development, and how managers and military officers modified and gained control of it.
