First Sentence
Just over 60 years ago, Spearman (1982) grumbled that "crammed as psychological writings are, and must needs be, with allusions to errors in an incidental manner, they hardly ever arrive at considering these profoundly, or even systematically." Read the first page

Format:Paperback
In this superb, easily read book James Reason deftly summarises many years of world wide research into the fascinating field of human error. If you ever wondered why you walk into your bedroom having forgotten just why you climbed the stairs in the first place - then this is the book for you.
The structure is simple with each chapter exploring a different aspect. The new reader is invited to skip the more theoretical parts and focus just on the most useful applications of current thinking.
This book is universlly cited as THE definitive book on the subject. For resolutely non-technical readers a more accessible text is 'Design of Everyday Things' by D Norman.

Another good foundation for HF students this is an enjoyable read and well worth comparing his work with Perrow and Dekker

Format:Paperback
A little dry but excellent for references to other works. He has written many books that are easier to read than this but this has loads of information that you may want to reference or read for yourself.
