Editorial Review Product Description The text describes practices that can be used by both project management and technical practitioners including those who are unfamiliar with risk management. The reader will learn to perform risk planning, identify and analyze risks, develop and implement risk handling plans, and monitor progress in reducing risks to an acceptable level. The book will help the reader to develop and implement a suitable risk management process and to evaluate an existing risk management process, identify shortfalls, and develop and implement needed enhancements. The second edition presents more than 700 risk management tips to succeed and traps to avoid, including numerous lessons learned derived from work performed on Air Force, Army, Navy, DoD, NASA, commercial, and other programs that feature hardware-intensive and software-intensive projects. The second edition includes a "roadmap" guide and expanded table of contents and index to enhance access to key information. A new appendix written by renowned risk management consultant and author Dr. Robert N. Charette addresses whether or not the definition of risk should include opportunity. Customer Reviews (1)
Practical insteal of theoretical What makes this book valuable for real world practitioners are the pragmatic advice for developing a risk management process that is based on the lessons learned by the author and best practices.In fact, there are over 250 such lessons learned. These alone make the book worthwhile for even the most experienced practitioner because there are sure to be many that you may not have considered.In addition to the best practices, the author provides pitfalls common to risk management and how to avoid them. Another aspect of this book that adds value is the use of readily available tools, such as Microsoft Excel, and popular simulation software (CrystalBall) to reinforce the techniques that are described in the book.Overall this is one of the best books on risk management that I own because it goes into deep detail and coves advanced topics. It also is practical instead of theoretical, which sets it apart from most risk management books. ... Read more |
15. An Introduction to the Mathematics and Methods of Astrodynamics, Revised Edition (Aiaa Education Series) by Richard H. Battin | |
Hardcover: 799

list price: US$79.95 -- used & new: US$79.94 (price subject to change: see help) Asin: 1563473429 Average Customer Review: Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France | Japan | |
Editorial Review Product Description The material presented in the text represents a 25-year evolution in course material developed by Dr. Battin. Former students who benefited from this material include three of the astronauts who walked on the moon. The text format offers flexibility for the user. Chapters are largely independent of each other and may be read or taught in any order, offering the opportunity to organize an undergraduate or graduate course that meets the needs of students having various levels of background and preparation. Further, the book covers more subject matter than is covered in a single course of instruction, thereby motivating students to stray from the beaten path of the classroom. Customer Reviews (2)

Editorial Review Product Description This book is unique because it is the first to cover the entire spectrum of spatial disorientation in flight. This text draws on the knowledge of expert authors from a broad background, several of whom have worked with the AFRL Human Effectiveness Directorate (AFRF/HE) at Wright Patterson AFB, OH and Brooks City-Base, TX. The book examines the long history of spatial disorientation in flight, describes the movements of aircraft in mathematical detail, and explains how these movements can conspire to fool human sensory systems that evolved for life on the ground. The book examines the structure and functions of the vestibular organs of the inner ear and their limitations under low-visibility flight situations. The book also examines the visual mechanisms that contribute to perceptions of self motion and describes the contribution of psychological factors to spatial disorientation. The book defines the types of visual and nonvisual illusions pilots experience in flight. Those chapters set the stage for a highly detailed examination of countermeasures, including ground-based training methodologies, in-flight sorties, instrument training, and display design. Much of the book is technical, but it is also rich in real-world statistics and anecdotes about accidents and close calls that have been attributed to spatial disorientation. |
