BSE: RISK, SCIENCE AND GOVERNANCE; PATRICK VAN ZWANENBURG...ET AL

"This book provides a lucid and compelling analysis of the BSE crisis: how policy-making processes were managed and how and why they culminated in catastrophic failure. It is the first comprehensive scholarly analysis of the relationship between science and politics in policy-making relating to BSE. The book reassesses the conclusions of the Phillips Enquiry into the UK government's handling of the BSE epidemic as well as extending and supplementing the analysis. The authors evaluate emerging public health policy changes in the light of the experience with the BSE crisis." "The book is directed at those involved in science policy, risk, and public health, as well as public officials, scientists, and policy-makers responsible for dealing with issues of risk, public health, and policy-making."--Jacket.
