Wildfire Risk: Human Perceptions and Management Implications
Wade E. Martin, Carol Raish, and Brian Kent, Editors

"The authors have considerably advanced our understanding of risk analysis by digging deeper into notions of vulnerability, issue framing, and tradeoff decision-making about the benefits of risk reduction. This book will have important policy and budgetary implications for how we approach wildfire risk response." --Sam Burns, Fort Lewis College
