Designing a World of Risk ManagementReviews...getAbstract recommends this informed and informative analysis to risk management professionals and professors who will appreciate Powers depth of knowledge. getAbsract Power's new book brings much the same note of sceptisism to another world-sweeping managerial pheomenon: the drive to convert uncertainty about the future into identifiable risks...[..] So what will be the new model to challenge, and perhaps even displace, risk management?
