Risks and Decisions for Conservation and Environmental ManagementCambridge University Press, 7 de abr. de 2005 - 488 páginas This book describes how to conduct a thorough, honest and complete environmental risk assessment. Coverage includes the philosophy of uncertainty and the frailties of human psychology when people are confronted with risky situations, including experts. Technical methods are provided to help make assessments more transparent and less prone to the biases of those involved in the assessment, and consideration is given to the way in which both subjective beliefs and technical analysis may be used to make better informed and fairer decisions. |
