Human Factors in Aviation
Since the 1950s, a number of specialized books dealing with human factors has been published, but very little in aviation. Human Factors in Aviation is the first comprehensive review of contemporary applications of human factors research to aviation. A "must" for aviation professionals, equipment and systems designers, pilots, and managers--with emphasis on definition and solution of specific problems.

Battling the Inner Dummy
From the sexcapades of Bill Clinton to the unbelievable story of Hugh Grant and the prostitute; from the 15-year-old who weighs only 82 pounds but believes she's obese, to the professor who screams profanities at other drivers in snarled traffic--we wonder out loud, "What are they thinking?!"

왜 개인과 집단은 권력을 누리면 달라지는가? “부패는 권력의 숙명인가?” 고대 그리스 정치가 피타쿠스는 “권력의 자리에 올랐을 때 인간 됨됨이가 드러난다”고 말했고, 미국 제16대 대통령 에이브러햄 링컨은 “어떤 사람의 인간 됨됨이를 알고 싶다면 그에게 권력을 주어보라”고 말했다. 이처럼 권력은 한 사람을 오롯이 판단할 수 있는 도구다. 우리는 주변에서 “저 사람 안 그랬는데 권력 맛을 보더니 달라졌네”라는 말을 자주 듣는다. 눈곱만한 권력이라도 갖게 된 사람이 그 권력으로 인해 변하는 모습을 본 적이 있...
