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 classifications, and the extent to which it is possible to predict and prevent errors and their impact. One of the first texts to deal with this topic in detail, it draws into a single cohesive account contributions from experts in a range of disciplines including psychology, philosophy, and engineering. Offering an insightful discussion of fundamental and necessary questions about the nature and source of human error, the book draws significant conclusions and identifies areas worthy of further exploration. This volume will be of interest to all who are concerned with the impact human error has on both the individual and society.
