Summary: The Most Timely of Human Factors Research in Nuclear Power
Review: The book is a compilation of 22 "human factors" research projects in nuclear power plants, performed to address the issues of safety and risk reduction. The papers are written by a variety of internationally known nuclear experts, and represent the most current studies available in one source. The focus of the research is the affects of human interaction with engineered technology.Unfortunately, because of the narrow scope of interest in this book, it is unavailable in most academic libraries. This is probably the most expensive book I have ever purchased. With that in mind, I must say I have no regrets. To purchase these studies separately through information services such as NTIS, would like cost about $40 each ($880 total). The information is solid and credible, and will likely serve as validators to my masters thesis.
