Risk Analysis Teaching and Learning Website

Risk Reading Page

Note: I have only put a few of the books that I like and use on this page...so there should be no surprise that the negative reviews are missing. I welcome additional book reviews. Guidelines: reviews should be brief (a couple sentences), and should indicate how the reviewed book fits into a risk education agenda, ideally linked to a syllabus. Authors: please feel no compunctions about asking me to add your book to this list!
