Human Factors Training

Editorial Reviews\n\nProduct Description\nFlight training and flying are hazardous activities that demand the most of human operators, whether they be pilots or other actors involved in the complex aviation system. This book aims to serve as a handbook for dealing with aviators and other operators, those seen as patients as well as those functioning normally, who nonetheless wish to improve their performance. The text intersects the human factors and clinical areas of aviation and operators in extreme environments. The book defines specific touchstone areas such as selection, training, accident investigation, measurement and testing and practical interventions. The little-margin-for-error realm of aviation exposes operators to stress and risk on a daily basis, and the book offers a blueprint for combining the talents of clinical psychologists with flight surgeons and human factors practitioners to enhance safety and efficiency. , ISBN-13: 9780754611059

The important thing is not so much that every child should be taught, as that every child should be given the wish to learn. --John Lubbock aEURoe Education, considered as a process of forming our mental habits and our outlook on the world, is to be judged successful in proportion as its outcome approximates to this ideal; in proportion, that is to say, as it gives us a true view of our place in society, of the relation of the whole human society to its no-human environment, and of the nature of the non-human world as it is in itself apart from our own desires and interests.aEUR --Bertrand Russel Printed Pages: 304.
