In Brewer's view, each of these organizations at some time in its history been a "perfect place" defined as "the best organization human beings could create to accomplish selective goals". NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, had "perfected itself in the reality of Apollo" but by the time of Brewers perceptive analysis he judged that NASA was "no longer a perfect place... [Apollo's] success is past and the lessons from it are obsolete". Brewer suggested that to regain its excellence NASA "needs new ways of thinking". This account describes attempts during the administration of President George H. W. Bush (1989-1993) to force a reluctant NASA to adopt "new ways of thinking". 10aUnited States.bNational Aeronautics and Space AdministrationxManagementxHistoryy20th century. 0aOrganizational changezUnited StatesxHistoryy20th century.1 aUnited States.bNASA History Office (2023- ),eissuing body.08iOnline version:aLogsdon, John M., 1937-tGoing beyondw(DLC) 2024002147 0aMonographs in aerospace history ;vno. 58. 0aNASA SP (Series) ;v4558.
