Summary "The aim of this book is to develop a sound preception of occupational hazards which pose a risk of traumatic injury, and a feeling for the possibilities of controlling these hazards by better design of hardware or work systems. Examples of actual serious accidents are given throughout in order to emphasis the reality of the hazards. Traumatic accidents are arguably the most important issue in occupational health and safety, considering their consequences in terms of the number of years of life which are lost, and the permanent disabilities which many accident victims have to live with." - page vi
