My first book, Safeware, presents a broad overview of what is known and practiced in System Safety today and provides a reference for understanding the state of the art. To avoid redundancy, information about basic concepts in safety engineering that appear in Safeware is not, in general, repeated. To make this book coherent in itself, however, there is some repetition, particularly on topics for which my understanding has advanced since writing Safeware.

In a course entitled System Safety Management, the University of Washington offers an in-depth review of the management tasks appropriate for each phase of a system s life cycle, including the various life cycle phases of military and nonmilitary systems and facilities, and an overview of the analytical and mathematical theory necessary to perform system safety engineering tasks. 

System Safety Engineering and Management, by Harold E. Roland and Brian Moriarty (1990) is a good but more involved book. It provides an extensive review of the concepts of system safety and their methods of application. An overview of a system safety program is given. The descriptions of several analytical techniques are valuable. For the application of some of them, quite a bit of knowledge about mathematics is necessary.
