"This unique and highly practical book should be the primary reference for students of aviation psychology seeking to gain an understanding of the principles and techniques of psychology applied to aviation. It will also be of interest to pilots and others who work professionally in aviation to gain insight into how much in modern psychology is applied to support safe flight operations. The new sections on aviation physiology and abilities and personality are excellent and further enhance the readability and usefulness of this text. The authors are leading figures in this field have presented a fascinating and highly readable textbook."
