3.0 out of 5 stars Good for non-pro's, December 14, 2009
This review is from: Systems Reliability and Failure Prevention (Artech House Technology Management Library) (Hardcover)
Chapter 1, Chapter 2 and Chapter 5 are at beginner's level. Nothing really interesting and the info you could find in some other places easily.

Chapter 4 (about organizational causes and failures ...

Mer) is quite good written and there are some useful information in chapter 6, and Chapter 8.

On an overall basis, I think the book is good for those who don't directly work with risk/reliability matters.
