Environmental Hazards in the British Isles (1981) offers a comprehensive account of the various hazards affecting Britain. Based on a wealth of empirical data, it provides a balanced perspective on phenomena that are usually presented in a sensational way by the media and then quickly forgotten. A three-fold methodology is suggested for the study of environmental hazards, which concentrates on their incidence, their causes and their frequency, and their impact on both the individual and society as a whole.
