Involved in safety?You should read T.A.Kletz!,

This review is from: Learning from Accidents, Third Edition (Hardcover)
[previously : Didier Bizzarri (D.Bizzarri@ulg.ac.be) (Liège, Belgium, Europe)]
I am surprised to see so few reviews for T.A.Kletz books. If you are dealing with potentially hazardous installations or systems, and not only if you are an engineer, you should read some Kletz. Allways hinging his books around his very message, T.A.Kletz constantly gives interesting practical examples and fine advice, from his 40 years own experience. He 'dismounts' accidents, their causes, superficial and underlying down to the detail. He shows the different aspects of human/organisational responsibility in accidents and their prevention. After going through one of his books, "human error" never reads the same again. In "Learning from Accidents", he does follow that methodology for about ten famous accidents, various generic accidents and many incidents. He shows how major accidents come out of sequences of minor defficiencies and are helped by sleeping faults, poor management, poor procedures, poor incident reporting,... poor design... and poor remembrance of previous accidents/incidents. If we don't learn from our mistakes, why bother making them? ;) |
