Overview

Many system safety standards inadequately define safety terms and sometimes define them incorrectly. Concise Encyclopedia of System Safety is explicitly devoted to defining system safety terms and concepts as a convenient desk reference manual and helps the safety professional find their way through the current jungle of terms and definitions used in books, guidelines, standards and even laws. This handy sized reference provides the definition of many safety terms rather than having to search through a slew of different manuals and documents looking for the exact definition. This book also initiates an effort to adopt a single common and correct definition for all safety-related terms by providing clear and current definitions for safety-related terms.
