While the answer to that question may never be truly known, \u003cstrong\u003eProcess Plants: A Handbook for Inherently Safer Design, Second Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e takes us several steps closer. The book demonstrates not just the importance of prevention, but the importance of designing with prevention in mind. It emphasizes the role of inherent safety in process safety management systems and in ensuring an appropriate process safety culture. Keeping the easy to understand style that made the first edition so popular, this book clearly delineates practical, everyday issues and complex technical ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second edition provides: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eCoverage of new inherent safety metrics and how to measure the degree or level of inherent safety\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNew examples of application of the various principles of inherently safer design and 20 new figures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNew emphasis on the role of inherently safer design in process safety management systems and in ensuring an appropriate process safety culture\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscussion of dust explosion risk reduction by means of inherently safer approaches \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNew chapter on case study development, providing a comprehensive approach to the prevention and mitigation of process incidents by timely incorporation of inherently safer design\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis updated version of a classic text examines how to incorporate inherently safer design into process industry activities, revising and updating information based on recent research and developments.
