Human performance is a key factor in the operation of many systems--for example, in nuclear power installations and in transport. In this book, internationally-recognized experts provide the reader with both theoretical and practical information on a wide range of topics, including environmental risk, work design, and complex human-machine interactions. The book will be particularly valuable to psychologists in universities and in industry who need to keep up-to-date with important recent research.
