In the aftermath of catastrophes, it is common to find prior
indicators, missed signals, and dismissed alerts that, had they
been recognized and appropriately managed before the event, could
have resulted in the undesired event being averted. These
indicators are typically called "precursors." Accident Precursor
Analysis and Management: Reducing Technological Risk Through
Diligence documents various industrial and academic approaches to
detecting, analyzing, and benefiting from accident precursors and
examines public-sector and private-sector roles in the collection
and use of precursor information. The book includes the analysis,
findings and recommendations of the authoring NAE committee as well
as eleven individually authored background papers on the
opportunity of precursor analysis and management, risk assessment,
risk management, and linking risk assessment and management. Table
