How does the aerospace communityparticularly the large commercial aircraft (LCA) sectoreffectively spur economic competitiveness on a global scale? Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the authors identify knowledge as an essential element in innovation and technological progress, and attempt to explain how the industry's disproportionately large population of highly skilled and highly paid workers, engineers, and scientists impact the global economy.

How does the aerospace communityparticularly the large commercial aircraft (LCA) sectoreffectively spur economic competitiveness on a global scale? Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the authors identify knowledge as an essential element in innovation and technological progress, and attempt to explain how the industry's disproportionately large population of highly skilled and highly paid workers, engineers, and scientists impact the global economy. Based on the results of more than a decade of work under the NASA/DoD Aerospace Knowledge Diffusion Research Project, the book contemplates how individuals and companies recognize, process, and exploit knowledge. The authors evaluate LCA sectors in the United States, Western Europe, and Japan; explore how knowledge diffusion and public policy shape research, development, and production; and summarize how the race for new technology sparks economic competition in this scholarly volume geared for students, scientists and researchers, and practitioners shaping public policy.
