Ghosts in the Machine Rethinking Learning Work and Culture in Air Traffic Control

Ghosts in the Machine Rethinking Learning Work and Culture in Air Traffic Control

This book provides a socio-cultural analysis of the ways in which air traffic controllers formally and informally learn about their work and the active role that organisational cultures play in shaping interpretation and meaning. In particular it describes the significant role that organizational cultures have played in shaping what is valued by controllers about their work and its role as a filter in enabling or constraining conscious inquiry. The premise of the book is that informal learning is just as important in shaping what people know and value about their work and that this area is frequently overlooked. By using an interpretative research approach the book highlights the ways in which the social structure of work organisation culture and history interweaves with learning work to guide and shape what is regarded by controllers as important and what is not. It demonstrates how this social construction is quite different from a top-down corporate culture approach. Technological and organizational reform is leading to changes in work practice and to changes in relationships between workers within the organization. These have implications for anyone wishing to understand the dynamics of organizational life. As such this study provides insights into many of the changes that are occurring in the nature of work in many different industries. Previous research into learning in air traffic control has centred largely on cognitive individual performance performance within teams or more recently on performance at a systems level. By tracing the role of context in shaping formal and informal learning this book shows why interventions at these levels sometimes fail. | Ghosts in the Machine Rethinking Learning Work and Culture in Air Traffic Control

Health and Safety Management An Alternative Approach to Reducing Accidents Injury and Illness at Work

Health and Safety Management An Alternative Approach to Reducing Accidents Injury and Illness at Work

At a time when our knowledge and understanding of health and safety at work is at its highest statistics show that ongoing improvements in accident rates and time taken off work due to injury and ill-health are stagnating. Alongside the fact that around 80% of accidents can be attributed to human error there is also increasing concern that modern-world issues of mental and physical wellbeing are undermining recent gains made ensuring the safety of people at work. By applying the principles of marginal gain and using lessons drawn from the high-risk world of outdoor adventure and high level sport this book provides a variety of practical solutions and seeks to reduce the incidence of human error in the workplace and the number of accidents and near-misses. The concept of Free Thinking Hazard Identification is introduced alongside the importance of managing changing circumstances and minimising the frequently underestimated risk to experienced workers. A range of practical recommendations are also made to help reduce time taken off work due to injury or ill-health through managing fitness diet and health and paying attention to mental wellbeing. | Health and Safety Management An Alternative Approach to Reducing Accidents Injury and Illness at Work

Fëdor Khitruk A Look at Soviet Animation through the Work of One Master

Fëdor Khitruk A Look at Soviet Animation through the Work of One Master

This book is a first and long-awaited study of the directorial work of the animation master Fëdor Khitruk (1917–2012) an artist who formed in the tradition of classical cel animation only to break the conventions once he turned into a director; a liaison between artists and authorities; a personality who promoted daring films to be created in the Soviet Union dominated by socialist realism; and a teacher and supporter of young artists that continued to carry on his legacy long after the Soviet empire collapsed. Fëdor Khitruk: A Look at Soviet Animation through the Work of One Master reveals Khitruk’s mastery in the art of the moving image and his critical role as a director of films that changed the look of Soviet animation and its relation to the animation world within and beyond the Eastern Bloc. Based on archival research personal interviews published memoirs and perceptive analyses of Khitruk’s production of films for children and adults this study is a must-read for scholars in Soviet art and culture as well as readers fascinated by traditional animation art. | Fëdor Khitruk A Look at Soviet Animation through the Work of One Master

Fishes Out of Water Biology and Ecology of Mudskippers

Mudskippers are amphibious fishes native to the Indo-West Pacific and tropical western Africa. Unlike most fishes mudskippers emerse to forage find mates and defend territories. Adaptations to their morphology physiology and behavior enable mudskippers to accommodate both aquatic and terrestrial habitats. For these traits mudskippers have long captured the fascination of scientists naturalists and fish hobbyists. Some mudskipper taxa (e. g. Periophthalmodon spp. Periophthalmus spp. Boleophthalmus spp. ) are readily observed on mudflats and mangrove forests during the ebb tide. Correspondingly these conspicuous and widespread taxa are relatively well-studied. The autecology and basic biology for the remaing taxa (e. g. Apocryptodon spp. and Oxuderces spp. ) are still poorly understood. Fishes Out of Water: Biology and Ecology of Mudskippers is the first comprehensive book to synthesize published scientific information and observation on these fishes. Two dozen subject experts present thorough overviews in fifteen distinct chapters. Contents span mudskipper anatomy distribution systematics physiology ecology and conservation. Unique adaptations to terrestriality are discussed within the context of each chapter foci. This authoritative reference equips the reader with the basic foundation to understand mudskipper biology and ecology while providing a framework in which emerging data are discussed. The book will be of interest to a broad range of students researchers and professionals in ichthyology evolution ecology animal behavior and comparative physiology. | Fishes Out of Water Biology and Ecology of Mudskippers
