Industry Reviews
An outgrowth of a Risk and Rationality research project for the Economic and Social Research Council. Explores the cultural and social factors that determine or influence people's sense of acceptable risk, as a beginning to finding ways to alter that sense. The theme is based on the observation that safety practices such as seat belts and bicycle helmets generally encourage people to take more chances to maintain their acceptable level of risk. Makes available the relevant anthropological work of Weber, Durkheim, Marx, Malinowski, and others. The examples range from financial investment through driving to the greenhouse effect. Paper edition (unseen), $21.95. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
