Reviews

'This book is a path-breaking and highly topical study of the cultural contexts of the regulation of safety.' David Nelken, Cardiff University, UK 'Why have different nations reacted so diversely to ""mad cow"" disease? Ferrari's answer is in fact a single, elegant solution to a host of long-standing theoretical puzzles in economics, political science, sociology, and law. His account of culture and risk will provoke debate and deepen insight in all these fields.' Dan Kahan, Yale Law School, USA
