Handbook of Human Factors and Ergonomics

"Handbook of Human Factors and Ergonomics" is an excellent seminal work on human factors and ergonomics. It is a well researched and well written book on the subject, well illustrated with case studies, examples, tables and figures. The book has a comprehensive coverage of the subject and covers a wide range of subjects and applications which makes it an indispensable part of the library for human factor and ergonomics practitioners, safety managers and auditors, engineers and other specialists. This weighty tome is worth the price and should not intimidate the reader.

Pardon the cliche but if you're only going to buy one 'hand' book (it's more like a phone book), this is the one you should get. It covers conventional physical ergonomics, as well as every other significant genre in the field.When I'm stuck for a quality resource, I find what I need here. Ouch! I'm still paying for it though.

A definate must for the Ergo student! The book has excellent describtive definitions and is an eye opener to the world of work. It focus on a diffirent perspective on the qaulity of worklife.
