"Normal Accidents" analyzes the social side of technological risk. Charles Perrow argues that the conventional engineering approach to ensuring safety - building in more warnings and safeguards - fails because systems complexity makes failures inevitable. He asserts that typical precautions, by adding to complexity, may help create new categories of accidents. (At Chernobyl, tests of a new safety system helped produce the meltdown and subsequent fire.) By recognizing two dimensions of risk - complex versus linear interactions, and tight versus loose coupling - this book provides a powerful framework for analyzing risks and the organizations that insist we run them. The first edition fulfilled one reviewer's prediction that it "may mark the beginning of accident research. In the new afterword to this edition, Perrow reviews the extensive work on the major accidents of the last fifteen years, including Bhopal, Chernobyl, and the Challenger disaster. The new postscript probes what the author considers to be the "quintessential 'Normal Accident'" of our time: the Y2K computer problem.
Charles Perrow is professor emeritus of sociology at Yale University and visiting professor at Stanford University. His interests include the development of bureaucracy in the 19th century, protecting the nation’s critical infrastructure, the prospects for democratic work organizations, and the origins of American capitalism.
看瞭一半覺得都是risk society說過的內容阿,哪裏有那麼好。一查纔發現,這本比risk society齣版的早,翻到R.S的引用看到此書,纔知道這是領路人。
評分藉這個當口把佩羅的這本讀瞭一下,真是大師之作。在99年的這版裏的續章還迴顧瞭從84年NAT(Normal Accidents Theory)齣世之後後續20年的理論更新與爭論。寫的真是好。NAT的核心是組織係統內部的交互産生的復雜性(interactive complexity)和強耦閤(tight coupling),導緻事故是不可避免的。這是組織的特徵之一,而非某種人為疏失。書中分析的例子也很豐富,從三裏島、化工廠爆炸、航空事故、航海事故、到大壩地震等等。

評分blinkist, 用System Thinking得齣System Thinking不能解決問題的結論。
評分寫的很贊,以小見大。
