"Risk analysis is the method of analyzing the dangers to individuals, business, and government agencies posed by potential natural and man-made hazards. The central task of the risk assessor is predicting the success of a project. This includes isolating the entire spectrum of adverse events that can detail a project or threaten the health and safety of individuals, organizations, and the environment."--Back cover.
