Product Description

With more than 10 years since the publication of the first edition, this updated version of the Handbook of Aviation Human Factors is poised to reclaim its title of the most comprehensive book on human factors applied to aviation. Not only was every chapter updated, and in many areas significantly expanded, three chapters were added to address new areas and approaches: resilience, uninhabited aerial vehicles, and aesthetics. In addition to the above topic areas, the handbook includes chapters addressing the history of aviation human factors, current R&D focus, basic research issues, organizational factors, personnel selection, ATC and ATM relevant issues, weather systems, team and individual performance, fatigue, situation awareness, training, and forensics.

4.0 out of 5 stars Useful and Interesting, July 9, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
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.
