Safety and Health for Engineers (ISBN 0471291897)

Essential for preparing for the CSP exam.:
If you're going to purchase one book to prepare for the Certified safety Proferssional (CSP) exam this is it.

Safety and Health for Engineers:
I just passed my ASP and this book was an excellent introductory text. While it is understood that many other reference have to be used, I recommend this book as one of the first you review.

Good idea, but flawed execution:
Although this text does cover a wide range of safety topics, it is somewhat dated and contains a farly large number of typos. Therefore, the reader has to be careful. The book needs to be updated and the typographical errors corrected. If that were to be done, it would definitely be a five star book.

Can't Wait for New Edition in December 2005:
Great book. As an educator, it was the best one on the market. It only lacks current data, but the new edition coming in a couple of months should take care of that.

A Mini-Encyclopedia of Diverse, Useful Information:
This single volume is jam-packed with a great deal of information. You can learn about such things as fire safety, the ergonomics of manual labor, human impact (pardon the pun) of falling accidents, electric shock hazards, the effects on humans of heat and cold, chemical hazards, biohazards, radiation hazards, and so much more.
