A summary of the techniques, tools, and concepts developed during the last 15 years that have been used to determine and estimate the relative risks of engineering designs, whether they result from design inadequacies or human error. Using real world examples and case studies to illustrate every technique, it focuses on how these methods apply in practice rather than in theory alone, taking into account both the human and the classical aspects of risks that occur in high- technology environments.
