Dealing with high-stakes risk potentials is dependent on getting to grips with easy to understand, yet difficult to apply, criteria for decision. With a fresh, honest approach, this book shows why scientific assessments of catastrophic risk based on averages don't work, and sets the stage for making the tough choice between precaution and fatalism.

He holds BA (Summa Cum Laude) and MA degrees in Economics from the University of Hartford, UK, where he has also served as an adjunct faculty member. During his wide professional and academic career, he has published over 50 papers in the fields of risk assessment, risk management, uncertainty modelling and the economics of risk.
