The Principles of Designing Safer Systems

The Principles of Designing Safer SystemsA Practical Guide to Managing Risk, Complexity, and Human-Technology InteractionsWhat's the cost of a single oversight in a high-risk system? In the world of modern engineering-where autonomous technology, AI, and global infrastructure intersect-system failure isn't just expensive. It's catastrophic.Whether you're designing software for aircraft, managing automation in healthcare, or building smart industrial systems, safety must be designed in-not inspected in. Yet many professionals still rely on outdated frameworks that fall short in today's increasingly complex environments.This practical and forward-thinking guide shows you how to build safer systems from the ground up.Rooted in systems thinking and supported by real-world case studies, The Principles of Designing Safer Systems delivers a clear, accessible roadmap to identifying risks, integrating human factors, and preventing failure before it happens.
