Tentang eBook ini
Cliff Edge Slips explores the science behind slips and falls on hiking trails, focusing on how environmental conditions, human movement, and decision-making converge to create hazardous situations.
It argues that falls aren't mere accidents but predictable events stemming from biomechanical vulnerabilities, environmental hazards, and cognitive biases.
For instance, understanding how slope angle and surface composition affect balance is crucial.

For instance, understanding how slope angle and surface composition affect balance is crucial.
The book uses insights from physics, kinesiology, and environmental science to explain the mechanics of falls, providing a comprehensive understanding of risk mitigation.
The book progresses systematically, starting with fundamental concepts of balance and gait, then examining the challenges posed by steep terrain and the impact of fatigue and cognitive biases.
It highlights practical guidelines for fall prevention, such as proper footwear selection and effective use of trekking poles.
By integrating biomechanical analysis with environmental science and cognitive psychology, the book provides a holistic view of fall causation, making it valuable for hikers, trail maintenance crews, and search and rescue teams alike.
