Decision Making Under Stress presents a state-of-the-art review of psychological theory, in research and practice, on decision making in high pressure and emergency situations.  It focuses on the experienced decision makers who deal with such risks, principally on flight decks, at civil emergencies, in industrial settings and military environments.  The 29 chapters cover a wide range of perspectives and applications from aviation, military, industry and the emergency services.  The authors, all international invited experts in their field, are based in research centers and universities from Europe, North America and Australia.  Their common interest is in the theories and methods of a new research domain called NDM (naturalistic decision making).

It brings together approaches to risk communication from a number of countries and describes the techniques, including drama, storytelling and scenarios that are used to identify and prioritise key communication issues, and to identify policy responses.   The book also provides a review of the methods and tools available for risk assessment, risk communication and priority setting, which are relevant not only to practitioners but to health planning more generally, and to many other areas of public health and policy. The discussion of these techniques is supported by case studies, and is concluded by a chapter reflecting on the conceptual and research issues that still need to be addressed. It also proposes new directions for risk communication that key into the public imagination with the aim of gaining their trust and confidence in the risk messages.  Communicating Health Risks to the Public: A Global Perspective brings together a wide variety of perspectives on risk communication, from the perspectives of health, anthropology, psychology, and media.

As a result, this volume of key writings is invaluable as a reference, to help guide exploration of critical research in the field.

The techniques and conceptual perspectives on heritage visualization are a subject of an ongoing interdisciplinary debate. By demonstrating scholarly excellence and best technical practice in this area, this volume is concerned with the challenge of providing intellectual transparency and accountability in visualization-based historical research. Addressing a range of cognitive and technological challenges, the authors make a strong case for a wider recognition of three-dimensional visualization as a constructive, intellectual process and valid methodology for historical research and its communication.  Intellectual transparency of visualization-based research, the pervading theme of this volume, is addressed from different perspectives reflecting the theory and practice o\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'By addressing a range of conceptual and technological challenges this title demonstrates that providing intellectual accountability, or ’transparency’, is the key to establishing computerised visualisation methods as a rigorous, constructive, and vital contribution to historical research and its communication.'

Drawing on research conducted in collaboration with the French Institute for Radiological Protection and Nuclear Safety (IRSN), the ideas that are put forward rely on a review of the practices of specialists in human and organizational factors concerning nuclear safety. The author shows that the French approach depends on maintaining a technical dialogue between the regulatory authority (ASN), IRSN and nuclear operators. This method of risk management is known as French cooking in the Anglo-Saxon world, where a more formal regulatory approach is taken.

Leadership is separated from ideas and institutional seniority and explained as the collaborative power of one with others. Enabling the intelligent co-participation of all people, the constructive effect of this approach to leadership is in the engagement of people. This is significant when task accomplishment depends not on managerial direction, but on the interaction of people with each other, with technical systems, and with complex regulations which are often across jurisdictional boundaries. Examples and case studies are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Beyond Command and Control: Leadership, Culture and Risk challenges the myths and cultural influences (both societal and organizational) surrounding modern day leadership and encourages the reader to broaden their thought processes to include the idea that leadership is not simply a position, it is a privilege – and that when people are trusted to lead, they bear an obligation to lead well. \u003cbr\u003eLeadership can only occur if there are followers. This book tackles the idea that leadership is mainly about effective human interaction and an ability to exercise constructive influence, and that the idea that leading well is informed by the concept of power with, not by power over - a concept that still appears to be quite foreign to many people, hence, the distinct lack of inspirational leaders in our society. \u003cbr\u003eToo many times in history, have we seen just the nominated leader take the fall when things have gone wrong. This book explores the idea that responsibility is not just placed on one person, that it is ‘infinitely wide’. That the major responsibility that is born by one person – the leader – does not dissolve the responsibility of others. This complements the collaborative approach to leadership that is a strong theme throughout the book that, as a team, you all play a part as you work towards achieving your goals and that you all bear a level of responsibility in ensuring that a successful, and safe, outcome is achieved.\"\u003cbr\u003e— \u003cem\u003eJocelyn Parsons, Global Maritime Emergency Response Company, Australia\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The book covers a range of topics relevant to modern leadership. The distinction between leadership and management is important as there is a tendency to conflate the two concepts.\u003cbr\u003eBy emphasizing that power relationships are inherent within the practice of leadership, the book provides a powerful case for recognizing that effective leadership must be underpinned by ethics and personal responsibility. These are personally challenging but important issues for leaders at all levels.\u003cbr\u003eThe book, while having its roots in crisis management, provides lessons that are instructive for industries and organizations of all types.

This book tackles the idea that leadership is mainly about effective human interaction and an ability to exercise constructive influence, and that the idea that leading well is informed by the concept of power with, not by power over - a concept that still appears to be quite foreign to many people, hence, the distinct lack of inspirational leaders in our society. \u003cbr\u003eToo many times in history, have we seen just the nominated leader take the fall when things have gone wrong. This book explores the idea that responsibility is not just placed on one person, that it is ‘infinitely wide’. That the major responsibility that is born by one person – the leader – does not dissolve the responsibility of others. This complements the collaborative approach to leadership that is a strong theme throughout the book that, as a team, you all play a part as you work towards achieving your goals and that you all bear a level of responsibility in ensuring that a successful, and safe, outcome is achieved.\"\u003cbr\u003e— \u003cem\u003eJocelyn Parsons, Global Maritime Emergency Response Company, Australia\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The book covers a range of topics relevant to modern leadership. The distinction between leadership and management is important as there is a tendency to conflate the two concepts.\u003cbr\u003eBy emphasizing that power relationships are inherent within the practice of leadership, the book provides a powerful case for recognizing that effective leadership must be underpinned by ethics and personal responsibility.

When the information is uncertain, incomplete or subject to change, then decision making and activity management can become challenging. Under such circumstances, it has become commonplace to use the concept of sensemaking as the lens through which to view organizational behavior.  This book offers a unique perspective on sensemaking through its consideration of the variety of ways in which Incident Response is managed by the Police.  As an incident moves from the initial call handling to subsequent mobilization of response to first officer attending, a wide range of information is acquired, processed and shared, and the organization (and individuals who work within it) face challenges of making sense of the situation to which they are responding.
