Critical Reviews

Destined to be viewed as a stone cold classic of the safety literature, this beautifully written work is that rare thing: scientifically rigorous, evidence-based, full of practical examples, and a genuine pleasure to read. A stunning effort which should influence the next decade of safety practice worldwide.
