✦ Synopsis

Chapter

15 discusses the relationship between cost and effectiveness, and includes coat models. Chapter 16 concludes with a synopsis of reliability program and management concepts.

At the conclusion of each chapter, several problems on the text and related material enable the book to be utilized in the classroom.

Since no book, even of the magnitude of this one (593 pages), can be all things to all people it will undoubtedly have some shortcomings.

While the chapters are generally complete in themselves on specific technical areas, this reviewer senses a discontinuity in relating these technical chapters into a unified mission reliability program. It does a good job, however, in introducing the mission reliability, operational readiness, and the performance capability relationship into a system effectiveness concept (Chapter 1). In the chapter on reliability demonstration, the author suggests that the ideal reliability test program is one which makes use of all available test data. Yet omitted from the book is an adequate procedure for combining the detailed data from all levels of hardware
