Recensioner i media

"This collection is required reading for anyone seriously engaged in understanding large-scale organizations operating high-hazard technologies. It is an extraordinary reach across various analytical dialects seeking clarity and the possibilities of integration."––––Todd R.LaPorte, Professor Emeritus and Professor of the Graduate School University of California, Berkeley"The world of safety and technology are subject to rapid change. It is often hard for researchers and practitioners to keep up. Inside Hazardous Technological Systems does an excellent job of capturing the latest research in the world of safety. Moreover, a large part of the book is given over to a reappreciation of one of the pioneers of safety research, Professor Barry Turner. The book is a welcome revisiting of his work and contains contributions from the leading scholars in the fields of safety and risk. I’d recommend it as essential reading for anyone interested in contemporary perspectives on safety, hazards, and technological systems."––– Patrick Waterson, Reader in Human Factors and Complex Systems, Loughborough Design School, University of Loughborough
