• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Risk asserts the ongoing importance of the analysis of risk in our age of permacrisis and mounting scepticism about experts and science, and calls for a 're-turn' to risk theory. This fully revised and expanded new edition includes a new chapter on risk information and denial in the context of the climate crisis and COVID-19 pandemic.
