Fischhoff B., Risk — 2011 (Very short introductions. 270)

We find risks everywhere - from genetically modified crops, medical malpractice, and stem-cell therapy to heartbreak, identity theft, and robbery. Risks can be imposed on us or arise from our own acts. Using concepts from decision theory and behavioural decision research, this Very Short Introduction examines the social and psychological contexts that define risks and the role of science in analysing them. Showing what science has learned about how people deal with risks, and applying this knowledge to diverse everyday examples, Baruch Fischhoff and John Kadvany demonstrate how we move from understanding a risk to making choices in our lives.
