RE: Critiques of NC risk analysis

1998-01-22 Thread BAIMAN

Jeff,

Peter Dorman (long-time and active URPE member - U. Mass Grad) at Michigan 
State University James Madison College, East Lansing, MI
has written much on this stuff including a book:
MARKETS AND MORTALITY: ECONOMICS, DANGEROUS WORK, AND THE VALUE OF HUMAN LIFE
Cambride U. Press, 1996 (or 1997)

More indirectly, some of my stuff on the irrelevance and non-optimality 
of Neoclassical surplus value methodology may be of interest. 

Best,

Ron

Press, entitled _Markets and Mortality:  Economics, Dangerous Work, and the
Value of Human Life_.  Gil Skillman
