Books by John W. Senders

This book is the result of a detailed analysis and a subsequent synthesis of the contributions of a large number of individuals who have been thinking about human errors for a long time. It is based on the Conference on the Nature and Source of Human Error, held in 1983 in Bellagio, Italy.

This volume examines the nature of human error - its causes and origins, its classification, and the extent to which it is possible to predict and prevent errors and their impact. It draws into a single cohesive account, contributions from experts in a range of disciplines.
