This volume contains peer-reviewed papers and case studies derived from invited papers. The contributions address two key problems: (i) natural, technological and environmental risks, risk prevention and sustainable development; and (ii) science, risk and society. The papers provide an invaluable insight into, and archival record of the relationship between risk, science, and society in a world that has become more turbulent since the tragic events of 11 September 2001. The papers from scientists, policymakers, and practitioners cover the topics of risk, sustainability, science, and society and are of value for natural and social scientists, teachers, students, economists, and politicians. The book can also be read with profit by authorities responsiblefor public safety, risk management, and risk mitigation plans, and insurance companies.
