Review:

I have used the book in a university classroom and as a supplement for a company accident investigation training program. The book received favorable evaluations as the participants stated the book gave them the confidence to conduct a thorough accident investigation. Accident Investigation Techniques outlines general terms, concepts and principles that will provide a solid foundation for conducting an effective accident investigation. Accident Investigation Techniques provides an excellent roadmap how to conduct effective and meaningful accident investigations for those preparing to undertake their first accident investigation. I have received feedback from several junior safety professionals who have stated the book was a value-added resource during the early stages in their safety career. The author provides proven 'Best Practices' and sound accident investigation strategies throughout the book. Darryl C. Hill, Ph.D., CSP --Professional Safety
