5.0 out of 5 stars For those who demand detail . . ., December 10, 2007
This review is from: Beyond the Black Box: Talk-In-Interaction in the Airline Cockpit (Directions in Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis) (Hardcover)
This is an amazing project, carefully executed, thoughtfully recorded. Let's state right away that this is NOT one of those books that have 'black box' recordings of aviation accidents. It is rather a ground-breaking nothing-quite-like-it incredibly detailed micro-analysis of routine language and interaction in the professional airline cockpit. For the applied psychology researcher interested in how pilots really communicate in a cockpit or answering questions of small team cognition this is a valuable reference, fully citing its own sources.

As someone lucky enough to be a LOSA observer at a major airline, I appreciate that this subject requires carefully study to make realistic suggestions. However the price of this book encourages library purchase rather than individual purchase for all but the most hard-core small-team cognition-in-action fans.
