The ETTO Principle: Efficiency-Thoroughness Trade-Off
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 69.81 $Accident investigation and risk assessment have for decades focused on the human factor, particularly 'human error'. Countless books and papers have been written about how to identify, classify, eliminate, prevent and compensate for it. This bias towards the study of performance failures, leads to a neglect of normal or 'error-free' performance and the assumption that as failures and successes have different origins there is little to be gained from studying them together. Erik Hollnagel believes this assumption is false and that safety cannot be attained only by eliminating risks and failures. The ETTO Principle looks at the common trait of people at work to adjust what they do to match the conditions - to what has happened, to what happens, and to what may happen. It proposes that this efficiency-thoroughness trade-off (ETTO) - usually sacrificing thoroughness for efficiency - is normal. While in some cases the adjustments may lead to adverse outcomes, these are due to the very same processes that produce successes, rather than to errors and malfunctions. The ETTO Principle removes the need for specialised theories and models of failure and 'human error' and offers a viable basis for effective and just approaches to both reactive and proactive safety management.

Musketry Classic Reprint
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 20.87 $Excerpt from Musketry An organization's ultimate efficiency in battle-field firing is dependent upon the thoroughness of its training in individual marksmanship, leadership, and teamwork. Maximum results can not be obtained by (1) a poor shooting company under the best of leadership, (2) a good shooting com pany under poor leadership. There can be no serious discussion among military men as to the relative value of individual and collective training in shooting, as one is dependent upon the other. The course as given in the Small Arms Firing Manual for the development of the individual marksman should be carefully followed and every effort made to bring each man to as near a state of perfection as possible. It must be remembered, however, that the soldier is being trained to work as one of a team, hence hand in hand with the training of the man to shoot should go the instruction and training to fit him to intelligently play his part in that team, he that part a leader or follower.

Medieval Imagination: Rhetoric and the Poetry of Courtly Love
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 81.83 $Medieval Imagination examines the poetry of courtly love with unprecedented thoroughness. Douglas Kelly offers detailed analyses of numerous works within a historical, conceptual, and artistic framework to establish the underlying concept of Imagination in courtly poetry. He capitalizes the term to underscore its medieval sense: the poet’s invention of significant images to represent a certain conception of truth. Imagination, thus, in its metaphorical sense of providing an idea with a suitable representation in an image, permitted an allegory of love in romance and dream vision from the twelfth century on. The techniques employed in Imagination—allegory, personification, metonymy, synecdoche—are analyzed in detail as amplification.In addition to his complete coverage of the better-known poets like Guillaume de Lorris, Machaut, and Froissart, Kelly examines the work of such rarely treated writers as René d’Anjou and Oton de Grandson, as well as the Echecs amoureux and related medieval Latin writings. The concluding chapters including Charles d’Orléans, Chartier, and Christine de Pisan.The later chapters are a rare boon to French scholars in providing a survey of Middle French courtly literature, a little-explored area of scholarship. Kelly’s documentation is a fresh and useful contribution to the interpretation of this too-often neglected period.The flower of medieval French culture, the poetry of courtly love, is examined with an unprecedented thoroughness in this work. Douglas Kelly offers detailed analyses of numerous works within a historical, conceptual, and artistic framework.
