Synopsis:
Discussions of science and values in risk management have largely focused on how values enter into arguments about risks, that is, issues of acceptable risk. Instead this volume concentrates on how values enter into collecting, interpreting, communicating, and evaluating the evidence of risks, that is, issues of the acceptability of evidence of risk.
Review: An excellent survey of a number of issues in environmental ethics. (Joel B. Goldsteen, University of Texas at Arlington)
