Perceptions of risk

摘要

The text that follows is based on my experience in the field of chemical risk management,developed within industry activities, in European Union stakeholder forums, regulatory debates and UN conferences, dialogues with environment and health NGOs the work implied also developing models for scientists to communicate risks to non-specialists. This analysis of my practical observations will hopefully be of value to those more academically active in the field of risk communication, perhaps providing incentive for further study.
