Description

The book

Flying is safe – but will it stay so? Since the end of World War II civil aviation has become a trustworthy mode of global transport by reducing hazards from technical failure, human factors and organisational deficiencies. This book explains the development of modern safety management thinking, the background and the obstacles. How can non-aviation sectors like power generation or health care profit from the insights gained in the process? And may we have confidence in further improvement in flight safety in a world with new risks arising?
