Recenzje

"I like this book, and not just because it was written by an industrial hygienist. For the bibliophile, it presents an excellent balance between theory and practice, often missing in professional texts; for the busy program manager, it's loaded with resource listings; for the industrial hygienist/safety specialist, it's crammed with really good case histories; for the trainer, it has an excellent section on what it takes to teach the adult learner.
-AIHA Journal

"Whether you are a novice or an expert...feel competent in working in small spaces... an excellent reference book, college textbook, or field companion"
