Diving Deeper with Human Factors

De: Gareth Lock

Narrado por: Graham Jack

Most incidents and accidents are down to "human error". Unfortunately, human error is normal and common, and we can't get rid of it. However, we can reduce the likelihood of one of those - "oh shit moments" - if we have an understanding of human factors and develop our non-technical skills.

This is a globally unique book containing decades of research and practice from high-risk domains translated into the world of recreational and technical diving. This is done through the use of numerous detailed case studies to highlight the value and applicability of these skills.

This book is a must for all divers who want to manage their risks more effectively and have fun in the process.

Perfect for the professional looking to better their understanding

As a new diving professional instructs higher level public safety diverse on a regular basis this book helps me to understand why my students make very simple steaks that should not be overlooked and gave me an amazing framework on how to critique and talk about issues we are having without making them feel bad. I recommend this book to any professional in any industry who is trying to better their understanding of human factor in any complex team or decision making process

Superb!

Invaluable insight into methods and attitudes for safer diving through the window of stories of mishaps and errors.

Honesty about Human Factors

Be prepared to examine yourself and how you deal/prepare for mistakes in diving and other life endeavours.

Psychology of scuba diving safety

This book illustrates how humans can sometimes be their own worst enemies, especially when assuming too much. It's astounding how we disregard our biases, take situational awareness for granted.

Trully awesome work

Thank you Gareth Lock for getting this incredible material to me in an audio form. It is teaching me something new ever time I listen to it and I am on my 10Th listen
