Defenseless Moments – a different perspective on serious injuries authored by Larry Wilson, edited by Dave Johnson

This book is based on a series of 12 short articles that were published in safety magazines all over the world. These articles – now chapters – were written and designed to provide a number of different perspectives–or paradigm shifts–in terms of how most people think about industrial safety, and how most people think about accidental injury causation in general.

The book is a great read for those that want to have these great safety topics on hand in one publication, and it’s an excellent companion to his previous book, Inside Out.
