Laura Rafferty is a Research Fellow within the Transportation Research Group at the University of Southampton where she is employed by the HFI DTC working on projects including Naturalistic Decision Making in Teams, Contemporising the Combat Estimate and compiling a Human Factors Methods Database. Laura has been researching Human Factors since 2006 when she was employed as an undergraduate placement student for the Human Factors Integration Defence Technology Centre (HFI DTC) at Brunel University. Laura completed her undergraduate studies in 2007 graduating with a BSc in Psychology (Hons) from Brunel University. Laura began studying for her PhD in 2007 before moving to the University of Southampton in 2009 to take up the role of Research Fellow and continue studying part time. In July 2011 Laura was awarded a PhD in Human Factors from the University of Southampton. Guy Walker is a Lecturer in the School of the Built Environment at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, and his research focuses on human factors issues in infrastructure and transport. He is a recipient, with his colleagues, of the Ergonomics Society's President's Medal for original research. He is also author/co-author of nine books on diverse topics in human factors, including a major text on human factors methods, and is author/co-author of over fifty international peer-reviewed journals. Professor Chris Baber graduated with a BA(Hons) in Psychology / English at Keele University before joining Aston University's Applied Psychology Unit in 1987. He was awarded a PhD in Human Factors of Speech Technology and joined Birmingham University in 1990. He taught on the MSc Work Design and Ergonomics course for 12 years, before joining the School of Electronic, Electrical and Computer Engineering (where he was appointed Head of School in 2010).

In July 2012, Dan joined the team at DCA, seizing the opportunity to work as part of an integrated product development team. Dan has developed experience of applied research in domains including medical, defence, nuclear facilities, automotive, submarines, maritime, aviation, policing, and control room design. Dan has co-authored nine books and over forty-five peer-reviewed journal paper, alongside numerous conference articles and book chapters. Dan and his colleagues were awarded the Ergonomics Society's President's Medal in 2008 for contribution to basic and applied ergonomics research.
"'As the necessity to consider human factors in system design and operation continues to grow, practitioners require a simple source of reference. This revised version overview of human factors methods delivers just that. While not a solution in itself, it provides an up-to-date reference for people who already have some human factors knowledge.' Erik Hollnagel, University of Southern Denmark, Denmark 'There are many designers and engineers who would like a gentle guide to ergonomics tools, and this book brings together in one place essential methods with validity checks. This new paradigm of introducing ergonomics through presentation of methods is very appealing and I foresee its wide use as a reference by project managers.' Richard H.Y. So, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong SAR, China 'The updated and revised version of the already highly successful handbook by Neville Stanton and his colleagues provides a valuable service to the effective application of human factors and ergonomics. As a methods cookbook, with over 100 step-by-step recipes, clear instructions, and even lots of pictures, it has a place on every practitioner's bookshelf.' Bob Hockey, Emeritus Professor of Psychology, University of Sheffield, UK 'An indispensable resource written by internationally-known experts, this text is the tool that human factors engineers and designers must have to practice their profession. That it is equally vital for researchers and all serious students attests to the breadth and utility of the coverage - an instant classic.' Peter Hancock, University of Central Florida, USA 'All in all, the revised edition of this book serves up a range of dishes for the methods-hungry Human Factors community and delivers them in a very palatable manner, making them easy to digest. I can well imagine that just as my old copy of Delia Smith is still my ""go to"" book in the kitchen, this will be my ""go to"" book in the office and still sitting on my bookshelf in 20 years' time.' Ergonomics, vol. 57, no. 11"
