Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Chemical and plant engineers, safety personnel and facilities managers should find this overview of the safety and legal issues confronting pilot plants and laboratories useful. The book explains why safety programmes are needed, covering key elements of research safety, flammability basics, safety systems and methods for performing a safety analysis. Guidance on NEC and NFPA codes for smaller organizations that might not have extensive background in this area, plus detailed material on specific safety problems, is also included.

Bibliography: (pages 261-272) and index.
