About the Author:
MARK JABLONOWSKI has spent nearly 30 years as a professional risk manager, insurance underwriter and insurance underwriting manager. He holds BA (Summa Cum Laude) and MA degrees in Economics from the University of Hartford, UK, where he has also served as an adjunct faculty member. During his wide professional and academic career, he has published over 50 papers in the fields of risk assessment, risk management, uncertainty modelling and the economics of risk. He is founder and principal of IntuitiveRisk (www.intuitiverisk.com), a consultancy and centre for research focusing on high-stakes risks.
Synopsis:
Dealing with high-stakes risk potentials depends on our ability to come to grips with some easy to understand, yet difficult to apply, criteria for decision. We need to go beyond the facade of pseudo-scientific assessments that cater to special interests. We need to take a fresh, honest look at the only two sensible decision criteria: precautionary avoidance and fatalism. This book shows why scientific assessments of catastrophic risk based on 'averages' don't work, and sets the stage for making the tough choice between precaution and fatalism.
