Risk Dilemmas - Forced Choices and Survival (Hardcover)

In this book, Mark Jablonowski, author of Precautionary Risk Management: Dealing with Catastrophic Loss Potentials in Business, the Community and Society (Palgrave Macmillan 2006), identifies the potential pitfalls of applying precautionary strategies to high-stakes risks that have already become entrenched. Risk dilemmas result, in which we find ourselves doomed if we do, doomed if we don't. Instead, precaution must be applied on a precautionary basis, considering alternative paths to progress that maintain natural risk levels. Assessing and implementing such alternatives may require a radical rethinking of the way we define progress, and how we go about achieving it. The reward is 'Survival'.
