Synopsis

Most environmental questions turn on assessments of risk, and the far-reaching social implications of risk mean that risk analysis now reaches into many areas.
This seminal collection combines technical risk literature with the social science analysis of risks and risk management in modern societies. In a superb, extensive introduction, the editors explain the major issues and develop an integrated framework in which risk research can be interpreted.
