Completely revised and updated, taking the scientific rigor to a
whole new level, the second edition of the Occupational Ergonomics
Handbook is now available in two volumes. This new organization
demonstrates the enormous amount of advances that have occurred in
the field since the publication of the first edition. The second
edition not only provides more information but makes it more
accessible. Each volume narrows the focus while broadening the
coverage, supplying immediate access to important information. One
of the most comprehensive sources for ergonomic knowledge
available, written by leading experts, providing both sound theory
and practical examples, this book is a valuable resource for anyone
in the field.

Fundamental and Assessment Tools for Occupational Ergonomics merges
the frontiers of ergonomics, workplace design, and management
issues. The editors have brought together researchers from
disciplines such as biomechanics, anthropometry, and cognitive
science with pioneering practitioners in industry. They discuss
tools of the trade, upper extremity analysis, backs, interventions,
management issues, design for ergonomics, principles of product
design, band-aid approaches, processing, distribution centers, and
service systems. The handbook is a compendium of information
authored by top-flight investigators who represent the cutting edge
of opinion, research, and interest in the field.
