Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Risk Management : How to Assess and Control Risk Related to Human Error in Products and Systems SIGNED/ INSCRIBED by William Muto Risk Management is a practical guide to applying risk management tools such as FMEA (failure modes and effects analysis) and FTA (fault tree analysis) to products and systems with a focus on user interactions and human error (aka "use error"). Unlike some books on the topic, Risk Management includes step-by-step instructions, advice, and caveats while illustrating the methods using hypothetical case studies. The authors also offer tips on how to avoid common pitfalls. Risk Management provides the tools for planning and conducting use error FMEAs and FTAs, from the beginning stages of setting goals, to creating a team, executing the plan, and documenting findings; understanding other use-related risk management tools, including URRA (use-related risk analysis), fishbone diagrams, and bowtie diagrams; and understanding the unique application of use-related risk management for regulatory approval of medical products. The book offers useful tools for user interface designers, human factors practitioners, engineers, quality and regulatory personnel, product regulators, and product development managers, as well as serving as an instructional guide for faculty and students. Novices with no experience to those who are knowledgeable about general risk management methods but need a refresher in applying them to use-related risk will benefit. Risk Management can inform practitioners in a broad range of areas, including consumer, medical, and industrial products, as well as transportation, power stations, aerospace, and the military.
