His project experience includes investigating the corporate and environmental history of manufactured gas operations and World War I and II era materials production facilities; researching the wartime experiences of individual veterans; and conducting oral histories. He also contributed to History Associates' history of the DuPont Company and has published books on the histories of the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division, the U.S. Indian Health Service of the U.S. Public Health Service, the U.S. Navy Seabees in the Iraq War, the Fort Worth District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and private companies. Dr. Carlisle is professor emeritus of history at Rutgers University, where he has taught courses in recent American history, nuclear history, and espionage. This book tells the story of the evolution of the Dahlgren Laboratory from a naval proof and test facility into a modern research and development center crucial to the technological evolution of the U.S. Navy. Combining a close analysis of the technical work that led to the improvements in weapons, bombsights, missiles, and the computers that provided their guidance with a close account of changing management styles, this work recounts many previously classified stories.
