Reviews

'Stimulation to reflection and provocation to reconsider beliefs and prejudices are needed in any part of science. Risk Management in Post-Trust Societies has those qualities and I therefore recommend it to both scientists and professionals interested in risk communication.' Tomas i? berg, Associate Professor, University of Kalmar, Sweden, in Risk Analysis
