{"product_id":"risk-and-acceptability-mary-douglas-9780415606752","title":"Risk and Acceptability","description":"First published in 1985, Mary Douglas intended Risk and Acceptability as a review of the existing literature on the state of risk theory. Unsatisfied with the current studies of risk, which she found to be flawed by individualistic and psychologistic biases, she instead uses the book to argue risk analysis from an anthropological perspective. Douglas raises questions about rational choice, the provision of public good and the autonomy of the individual.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Douglas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415606756\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415606752\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/14\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.40w x 0.30d","brand":"Mary Douglas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48748270027007,"sku":"9780415606752","price":77.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/risk-and-acceptability-mary-douglas-9780415606752","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
