When this happens, scientists and engineers can find themselves unprepared in the midst of an intense science policy debate. In the absence of convincing evidence, technological optimists and skeptics struggle to build consensus. In these situations, it is best to sidestep the instigating controversy by using a broad risk-benefit assessment as a risk exploration tool to help scientists and engineers accomplish their goals while avoiding physical or moral dangers. Dangerous Science explores the intersection of science policy and risk analysis to determine ways to minimize negative impacts of science and technology on society.? 546 English. 650 7 Risk assessment.|2bicssc 650 7 Public finance.|2bicssc 650 7 Science: general issues.|2bicssc 650 7 Biology, life sciences.|2bicssc 650 7 Engineering: general.|2bicssc 650 7 Science & technology: general interest (Children's |xTeenage)|2bicssc 776 0 |z1911529897 914 on1147257264 994 92|bCKE
