This book explains, in concise chapters, the diversity and complexity of what is known concerning human responses to vibration. The book covers both whole body vibration and hand-transmitted vibration and contains pictorial models of the relevant variables, as well as experimental data and epidemiological studies. The study of human vibration incorporates psychology, mathematics, physiology, engineering, medicine, and statistics, and the "Handbook of Human Vibration" is written to assist both students of the subject and those addressing practical problems.

It summarizes current understanding of the many human responses to vibration, including both whole-body and hand-transmitted vibration.
