Chicago, IL: The University of Chicago Press, 1996. First Printing. Hardcover. Good/Fair. xv, [1], 575, [1] pages. Figures. Tables. Appendices. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Ex-library with usual library markings. DJ in plastic sleeve. DJ flaps pasted inside boards. Diane Vaughan is an American sociologist and professor at Columbia University. She is known for her work on organizational and management issues, in particular in the case of the space shuttle Challenger crash.
