Dr Helena AI Book Cover

We’re proud to celebrate the exceptional work of CBPP Professor Helena Wisniewski, Ph.D., whose newly published book, Global Supply Chains in the Age of AI: Strategies and Emerging Technologies, is already gaining recognition as a definitive voice in the evolving world of AI Emerging Technology.

Global Supply Chains in the Age of AI: Strategies and Emerging Technologies by CBPP Professor Helena Wisniewski, Ph.D. offers a timely and insightful exploration of how artificial intelligence and emerging technologies are transforming global supply networks. Through a compelling blend of real-world case studies and thoughtful analysis, the book illustrates how AI, IoT, robotics, blockchain, and digital twins can make supply chains more resilient, sustainable, and efficient.

The book’s strength lies in its depth and accessibility, tracing the evolution of supply chains since World War II while connecting historical lessons to modern challenges intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical disruptions. It serves as both a scholarly reference and a practical guide for leaders navigating rapid technological change.

Endorsed by global experts, it has been praised as “an essential reference for scholars, government officials, and industry experts” (Dr. Todd McAllister, National Defense University) and “an excellent source for understanding supply chain current and future directions” (Dr. Tony Tether, former DARPA Director). Dr. Robert Duncan of Texas Tech University calls it “a must-read for those interested in the future of global supply chains, technology, and AI’s role within it.”

With its clear vision and authoritative insights, this book stands as a vital contribution to understanding the intersection of technology, innovation, and global trade. We’re proud to celebrate Professor Wisniewski’s outstanding scholarship and leadership in this field.

This book is available now through World Scientific with a 25% discount using code BUS25.  Valid through January 31, 2026.  Additionally available on Amazon.
