TITLE: Risk Abstracts (Proquest Environmental Science & Pollution Management subfile)

Experts define risk as a combination of the magnitude and probability of adverse effects. Recently increasing scientific attention has centered on the identification and alleviation of risk in today's world. And Risk Abstracts provides a comprehensive source for interdisciplinary perspectives in this evolving field. Published in association with the Institute for Risk Research at the University of Waterloo, Risk Abstracts encompasses risk arising from industrial, technological, environmental, and other sources, with an emphasis on assessment and management of risk. The journal includes occasional articles on topics of significant interest. The broad, multidisciplinary coverage of risk-related concerns ranges from public and environmental health to social issues and psychological aspects.
