Human Factors,

This review is from: Handbook of Aviation Human Factors, Second Edition (Human Factors in Transportation) (Hardcover)
Not a bad book in general for studies, BUT it is written poorly and very boring/hard to read. I'd suggest a different book for studying Human Factors in Aviation.

This review is from: Handbook of Aviation Human Factors, Second Edition (Human Factors in Transportation) (Hardcover)
I gave the book a 4 out of 5 because it provides useful information in the advancement of Human Factors. In my opinion, it is organized well and although some chapters are long, they won't necessarily put you to sleep. For someone who wasn't familiar with the subject prior to reading this book, I found it particularly interesting. The information in it is current but not the latest and greatest because of the subject matter covered. Apparently this edition is miles ahead of it's predecessor but I never read the previous one.
I recommend it if you want to enhance your knowledge of the subject, as it covers various distinct areas of the human factors in aviation.
