Description for Theoretical and Mathematical Foundations of Human Health Risk Analysis
Hardback. Scientists and regulators have struggled to define the role of theory, experiments, models and common sense in risk analysis. This book arises from efforts at regulatory agencies and industries to bring more science into health risk analysis. It covers the characterization of exposure to pollutants and other sources of risk. Num Pages: 208 pages, biography. BIC Classification: KJMD; RN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 14. Weight in Grams: 498.
Scientists and regulators have struggled to define the role of theory, experiments, models and common sense in risk analysis. This situation has been made worse by the isolation of theory from modeling, of experimentation from theory, and of practical action from basic science.
This book arises from efforts at regulatory agencies and industries to bring more science into health risk analysis so that society may better use limited resources to improve public health.

Reviews for Theoretical and Mathematical Foundations of Human Health Risk Analysis
`This book is a must for scientists and policy-makers who struggle with the potential and the limitations of health risk assessment. It is more than useful reading for students of environmental science. But above all, it is the best book on health risk assessment that I have read in the last five years.' ... Read more
