Thanks for visiting.
Purpose
The purpose of this web site is to provide examples and commentary on the content of Occupational Risk Control: Predicting and Preventing the Unwanted by Derek Viner and published in April 2015 by Gower. I intentionally did not include many examples in the book as I did not want to obscure the essentially simple theory of Risk. I am adding examples and applications to the various chapters as happenings in the world prompt me to do so. If you’d particularly like examples and comment on aspects I have not yet covered, please feel free to contact me – see below for how.
As the site develops I intend to provide an opportunity for you to contribute to commentary, examples and general discussion.
Obtaining the book
The book is available in hard back, e-Pub and PDF form. In late 2015, Gower was merged into the publishing house of Taylor and Francis, which itself is a part of the Routledge organisation (www.routledge.com). The new direct link to the book is https://www.routledge.com/products/9781472419705
