Based upon a vast array of published and unpublished sources, the book provides an original account of the discipline's pre-war and wartime origins. This serves as a prelude to a wide-ranging analysis of the diffusion of OR into the public and private sectors after 1945. The chapters on the role of OR in iron and steel and coal-mining, and its rapid adoption in the UK corporate sector after 1960, will be of particular interest to practitioners. 606 $aOperations research$zGreat Britain 606 $aMilitary art and science$zGreat Britain 606 $aResearch, Industrial$zGreat Britain 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aOperations research 615 0$aMilitary art and science 615 0$aResearch, Industrial 676 $a658.4034 700 $aKirby$b M.
