from the preface
This is an interdisciplinary book specifically focused on the manufacturing engineer who gets things done. This volume of "...the Systems Way" series presents an “evolutionary not revolutionary” extention to defining and solving safety problems. It builds upon the none-too-common perspective of identifying safety problems as systems problems and gives the tools necessary to both recognize the dimensions of the problem and to develop the strategies that will make your systemic solution successful. While "Working Safer...the Systems Way" takes a commonsense approach, some background mastery of engineering basics is essential to get immediate benefit from this book. More important than a mere collection of facts, the Systems Thinking Institute teaches a way to think, an approach that you can adapt for your business' and your own benefit, as you progress along that tightrope we call a career in the 1990's and into the next millennium...
