   The Bookshelf talks with Steven Casey
   ...
   As a specialist in ergonomics and human factors, Steven Casey has spent years observing the consequences of poor design. In his 1993 book Set Phasers on Stun (Aegean), he collected 20 true cautionary tales that illustrated the real costs of human error in settings from cockpits to passenger ferries.
   
   In this year's follow-up, The Atomic Chef (Aegean), Casey presents another score of stories about the "surprising yet foreseeable events" that can arise due to a misleading gauge, an awkward workspace, poor maintenance or an ill-defined procedure. Very often the outcome is death, even though the machines involved are working properly as designed.
   
   American Scientist Online managing editor Greg Ross interviewed Casey by telephone in December 2006.

   Authoring a story for the Industrial Vehicle Technology International (IVT) September issue, Steven M. Casey, Ph.D., praises Crown design and engineering in an article, entitled, "Style Counsel".

   Casey says a "stellar example of designer-based innovation was the development of the side-stance electric forklift by Crown in the 1970s.
   
   " Up until this time all such stand-up trucks were designed with the operator facing the back of the load resting on the forks.
