Reviews
This is an excellent book for all
managers with responsibility for staff in airlines and associated
service providers. It provides an insight into mental health issues
specifically for aircrew and cabin staff, and presents a manager with
the core knowledge to improve recruitment, staff motivation, retention
and performance. A very thought-provoking read.'
Roger Wootton, City University, London
'This book is not only essential reading for all those professionally
involved in any way with aviation mental health - its assessment,
management, treatment and care, it is also truly addictive reading for
the curious.' - The RoSPA Occupational Safety & Health Journal February
2007
'In conclusion, this book on Aviation Mental Health is a very
interesting exposure to a new and promising area of mental health in a
very professional and dedicated sector. It has broadened the scope from
physiological and psychological assessment of fitness to fly towards
domains of psychological and mental health issues.' Professor John
Stoop, Lund University, HFES Newsletter, June 2007
'Overall this is a useful practical guide to an important area of
occupational mental health…'
