Rickover: Underway, My Way offers an unprecedented, intimate glimpse into the life of the longest-serving naval officer in U.S. history. Blending historical analysis with personal anecdotes, the biography captures the relentless drive, brilliance, and softer side of the man who single-handedly forced the modernization of the American fleet. A highlight of the book is Rickover's framework of seven principles for success. At a time when leadership accountability and technical rigor are under increasing scrutiny, Rickover's principles are more relevant than ever.

The success of the biography underscores the mission of the Center for Excellence in Education, which Admiral Rickover co-founded alongside DiGennaro in 1983. Established on the principle of nurturing top-tier STEM talent, CEE's programs—such as the Research Science Institute (RSI) and the USA Biolympiad (USABO)—directly reflect the rigorous academic and professional ideals championed by the Admiral.
