Recenzii
"This book provides an exhaustive overview of basic physical ergonomics principles. It is designed to be used as an introductory text and could be complemented with corresponding lab exercises. ... Bush brings her two decades of teaching expertise in ergonomics. The book fills the gap for an exhaustive introductory text for both students and professionals new to the field of ergonomics. ... Although the book primarily covers physical ergonomics, the chapter on cognitive ergonomics provides adequate references to explore further. This book would be a very valuable resource for anyone planning to take the Certified Professional Ergonomist examination."

"Students and instructors are able to download a comprehensive laboratory manual (144 pages) from the publisher’s website which comprises detailed descriptions of group and individual exercises. The instructions and material provided in the laboratory manual are based on the personal teaching experiences of the author, and the content is helpful. Instructors are further supported with an additional manual and slides when they adopt this textbook for their courses. ... It covers essential physical ergonomics knowledge in a condensed and easily accessible way. Instructors and students of introductory ergonomics courses will benefit from using these resources in class."
