Mad Cows and Mother's Milk: The Perils of Poor Risk Communication

Communicating the nature and consequences of environmental health risks is a problematic area of public policy in western democracies. Download Mad Cows and Mother's Milk medical books for free.
Given the perceived risks associated with the food we eat, chemicals in the environment, and modern technologies - this text argues that consumers need explanations of the nature of those risks, but rarely get them. This text provides an evaluation of the role of risk communication in dealing with public controversies - it analyzes risk communication practice and malpractice to provide a set of lessons for risk managers and communicators. It presents a number of case studies of risk including the "mad cow crises" in 1996, one of the most expensive and tragic examples of poor risk management in the last 25 years.
