Griffin writes: I sought to offer through my public addresses a more complete rationale for human presence in space. In various speeches I tried to illustrate the connections between a vigorous program of human space exploration and important societal interests including national security; the value of leadership and partnership in great enterprises; the effect on our industrial base and economic competitiveness of learning how to do very hard things; the spread of values and culture among the worlds of the future; the long-term survival of the human species; and, yes, enhanced possibilities for scientific discovery. Part 1 of this collection offers a collection of speeches addressing various aspects of that broad theme. Because the exploration and development of the space frontier is a strategic issue for the United States, NASA touches important segments of society on many levels. Learning how to live and work in space or sending our machines there on our behalf has profoundly influenced and in some cases redefined the practice of commerce, science, engineering and management in our nation and the world. Part 2 includes speeches on various aspects of such influence. In particular, I am persuaded that we owe the modern practice of system engineering and its allied discipline, systems management, to the driving force of the early civil and military space programs. I believe these disciplines are crucial to our success in a competitive global society yet are widely misunderstood; and so I have included in this section some material outlining my views on what system engineering is and is not.
