Beschreibung
The first comprehensive reference work covering safety professional terminology
A convenient desk reference designed to fill a serious gap in the system safety body of knowledge, the Concise Encyclopedia of System Safety: Definition of Terms and Concepts is the first book explicitly devoted to defining system safety terms and concepts and designed to help safety professionals quickly and easily locate the definitions and information which they need to stay abreast of research new and old.
Definitions for safety-related terminology currently differ between individual books, guidelines, standards, and even laws. Establishing a single common and complete set of definitions for the first time, with examples for each, the book revolutionizes the way in which safety professionals are able to understand their field.
The definitive resource devoted to defining all of the major terms and concepts used in system safety and reliability in a single volume, Concise Encyclopedia of System Safety is the go-to book for systems safety engineers, analysts, and managers as they encounter new terms, or need an exact, technical definition of commonly used terms.
Many system safety standards inadequately define safety terms and sometimes define them incorrectly. Concise Encyclopedia of System Safety is explicitly devoted to defining system safety terms and concepts as a convenient desk reference manual and helps the safety professional find their way through the current jungle of terms and definitions used in books, guidelines, standards and even laws. This handy sized reference provides the definition of many safety terms rather than having to search through a slew of different manuals and documents looking for the exact definition. This book also initiates an effort to adopt a single common and correct definition for all safety-related terms by providing clear and current definitions for safety-related terms.
