Have you ever:
Checked Facebook while driving?
Taken a selfie while being evacuated from a burning plane?
Joined the mile-high club while flying the plane?

The surprising science behind everyday calamities

'Casner convincingly argues that we all need to make a habit of being more careful. A scientist and a natural storyteller, he takes the studies, data, and safety advice we usually tune out and turns it into gripping, page-turning material. This is a how-to guide for a new way of thinking about survival in a world filled with hazards and distractions' Charles Duhigg, author of Smarter Faster Better and The Power of Habit

'Steve Casner is an authority on human behaviour, especially in the interaction with the ever-increasing automated systems of the modern world. He works at NASA where he is an expert in aviation safety, but he has extended his range of expertise far beyond that of airplanes . . . An excellent writer' Don Norman, author of The Design of Everyday Things
