"Sasho Andonov’s book, Quality-I is Safety-II – The Integration of Two Management Systems is a fascinating and important read in our complicated time in which the writer gives a very clear picture to unveil a significant definition of both Safety and Quality in sensitive contexts such as aviation. Safety and Quality, as Sasho correctly puts it forward, go hand in hand and the quality profession practice – traced back to the ancient Egyptians and the building of the pyramids – gives birth to new approaches not intrinsically associated with craftsmanship."—Vahid Norouzalibeik, PacAvi Group, USA
