DESCRIPTION:
. David Lewis was a Distinguished University Professor at Auburn University. About the Author Until his death in September 2007, W
Some of the executives profiled were known for having adversative relationships with federal regulators, whereas others wholeheartedly accepted regulation and thrived under it.There have been public calls for a return to airline regulation, and Lewis thinks it is not inconceivable that regulation may ultimately return if problems continue and conditions deteriorate further. By focusing on the lives and personalities of individual entrepreneurs, W. Lewis has been careful to give a variety of perspective: Airlines of various types are represented -- large and small, scheduled and unscheduled. This collection of essays -- scholarly and well documented but written in a lively style suitable for specialists and nonspecialists alike -- provides a long-range perspective on the issue of airline deregulation.. But, he say's, it is well to remember that deregulation occurred because there were flaws in the regulatory system it replaced. David Lewis and his contributors hope to explore the interaction between technology, government regulation, and entrepreneurship.Each essay in the book focuses on a particular airline executive, such as Eddie Rickenbacker, Robert Six, and Donald Nyrop. This book is a collection of eight case studies of relationships between airline executives and federal regulatory agencies from the passage of the Air Commerce Act in 1926 to the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978

Interesting Study of the Airline Industry James Sadler Okay, for starters, you probably do not want to read this book unless (a) you are fascinated by the airline industry (as I am) or (b) you are trying to impress some professor or teacher. Believe me, if you're the latter, you could write a really great paper based on this book.The book is a collection of eight case studies by various authors, each examining the relationship between various airline executives and the federal government during. "Airline executives and their relationship with the government" according to James Hoogerwerf. This is a book about airline executives and their relationship with the government. Some embraced regulation, others abhorred it. This is a case study which highlights the benefits and failures of government in the growth of commercial aviation. The leaders are individuals of strong egos, character and vision. They are the subject of this book and the author has selected executives of representative airlines based on size, scheduled or unsc.
