Finally, what I was waiting for: a stout collection of case studies (18 episodes in total; at least two disasters in every episode – sometimes as many as six) taken from a sizable variety of engineering areas. As a chemical engineer and as an instructor, I found this collection very inviting, corpulent of different “case studies” and lessons to learn in a very comical method.

Many of the major engineering disasters of the past century are covered. Each episode provides about 5 disasters and during the 8-10 minutes is provided the do (trouble), the cause and the solution. The dvd menu lists each misfortune, so one can go snappy to the disasters of their interest.
The episodes included are #4 through #20, plus Hurricane Katrina is provided as a bonus single trouble episode. Which begs the put a question to, what happened to episodes #1, #2, and #3, as they are not in this place? These early three episodes were generally an overview containing a wide number of disasters in brief detail. I suspect, since these episodes were so safe, A&E expanded the series to provide powerful greater detail and limit each succeeding episode to objective 5 disasters.
This residence also needs an index of every trouble, either on the dvds, or with a paper insert. I loved the menus as they are so simple and easy to follow, without insensible pictures cluttering the veil.
