This latest offering from Routledge is one of those...there is more wisdom packed into these 150 pages than I have seen in any other safety publication. It offers a personal view that's both full of warm humour and passionate about the safety adviser's contribution to business success. - Paul Smith MA CFIOSH, A former Health and Safety Executive inspector, he's now a specialist writer on safety and health topics, IOSH Magazine
