What Risk?

by Roger Bate (Editor)

Part of the effort by the European Science and Environment Forum to provide the media and the public with its perspective on current debates about environmental and personal risks, and to point out countervailing studies that are overlooked. The contributors are primarily concerned with highlighting the uncertainties inherent in scientific estimates of risk and with bringing the notion of dose as well as toxicity into questions of regulating substances.
