Exploring Resilience - A Scientific Journey from Practice to Theory

For more than a decade, resilience has been a key safety issue. However, few studies have made it possible to develop models and theories that can be used in the field to help increase resilience and improve safety.

This book, published in English by Springer, contains 15 articles written by leading international experts. The aim is to explore models used in the field that make resilience an element in improving safety, and to build a new theoretical framework.
