The only other book I would recommend is Wickens, Gordon & Liu (1998) An
Introduction to Human Factors Engineering. Longman Unfortunately it doesn't
have a workbook.

Subject: Good human factors texts?
After several years of teaching other topics, I am preparing to
teach human factors again. In the past, I have used the Sanders &
McCormick text and workbook with great success. Unfortunately, that
text is getting old (1993). The newer texts (Proctor & Van Zandt,
Wickens & Hollands) appear less interesting to read (at least for our
undergraduates) and lack the handy workbook for homework and
class projects.
If any of the TIPS readers have experience with this course, I would
appreciate your take on the available texts. I'm seriously thinking of
letting this course go due to the lack of good text materials for
undergraduate psychology students.
