Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This is an essential reference book for engineers, providing comprehensive coverage of health and safety, and incorporating the latest thinking. For legal and ethical reasons engineers must commit to good health and safety management. This book demonstrates how to meet these obligations throughout the life of a project and at the same time achieve commercial advantage.Helen Stone ISI BSc Eng FISE, Past Chairman of Health and Safety Board, Institution of Civil Engineers
