Risks everywhere. They have many sources, including crime, diseases, accidents, terror, climate change, finance and the sphere of intimate relationships. Risks arise as a result of our own actions or are imposed on us. In this “very brief introduction” of Fishhoff and Cadwans, relying both on natural science and humanitarian thoughts show that it combines all risks. Does the loss of money, health, reputation or spiritual peace of mind are worried? How much do we care about what is happening now, or about what will happen in the future? Do we show concern about ourselves or others? Before making a decision on risks, we need to carefully consider what it is important for us, attracting past experience, scientific knowledge and taking into account the uncertainty related to the future.
The book is intended for everyone who is faced with risk, and especially for economists, psychologists, engineers, mathematicians, lawyers, philosophers and politicians
