内容説明

Because we depend on the environment and the health of the ecosystem, and because we are still learning about the complex inter-relationships that maintain its functions, it is necessary to take particular care about possible harm to the environment and ecosystems. This guide is about assessing and managing risks, particularly environmental risks, in a systematic way as a contribution to the UK's sustainable development strategy, attempting to explore some of the underlying principles. The book is intended for the generalist reader who is interested in the subject without wanting a full-blown textbook, and for policy makers and managers who need to ensure they can set guidelines for a risk assessment and can critically appraise what is presented to them.
