"… an excellent reference book for engineers and practitioners in the field of ergonomics. … very useful to people involved in the design and automation of manufacturing systems. … a great reference book for universities and colleges that educate professionals in this important field of engineering."—Arturo Molina, Tecnologico de Monterrey, Mexico"Each chapter has a wealth of line drawings, photographs (though the quality of print of these is not brilliant). tables and diagrams. And, unlike a great deal of such illustrative material. they do actually add to an understanding of the text. The scope of the book is such that it can be used as a reference for graduate students in health sciences, engineering, technology and business as well as professional practitioners of these disciplines. Equally it can be used as a senior level undergraduate textbook, with solved problems, case studies, and exercises included in several chapters. All in all, the book blends medical and engineering applications to solve musculoskeletal, safety, and health problems in a variety of traditional and emerging industries ranging from the office to the operating room to operations engineering."—The RoSPA Occupational Safety & Health Journal, December 2012
