Couverture du Chris Hohenemser & Jeanne X Kasperson: Risk In The Technological Society (ePUB)

They look at two failures in technological risk management-Three Mile Island and Love Canal; examine the dimensions of technological risk; tackle the difficult question of how safe is "safe enough"; and offer a set of research priorities.
