Compulsive Risk Assessment Psychosis
A CRAP attitude toward risk: a risk-averse society has spawned pseudoscience and the phenomenon of Compulsive Risk Assessment Psychosis, a U.K. professor argues.
Professor Adams, who is the author of 'Risk', places himself firmly at the head of the contrarians in suggesting that there is "a compulsion to assess the hell out of each and every risk."

John Adams: Risk in a Hypermobile World
We live in a world where increasingly, Hysteria Driven Nonsense
is paralyzing our capacity to LIVE!
People from all walks of life are increasingly working in an environment where a culture of ‘fear to act’ dominates their every decision.
- School excursions and activities reduced or canceled due to fine print details.
- The ordinary experiences of living reduced for fear of legal action or insurance issues.
- The apparent absence of any sense of personal responsibility.
Alongside this is a seemingly unbridled culture of finger pointing and accusation where facts can be placed firmly in the back seat while the interests of self-protecting administrative personnel and systems are right up there with the driver!
One hears anecdotal reports of careers; reputations and families destroyed because of often ill founded or contrived ‘complaints’ against individuals for an array of reasons.
One sees good and dedicated people become increasingly disillusioned by the effect of C.R.A.P. in their lives.
We recall the hysteria of McCarthyism in America during the 1950's, so well exposed in Arthur Millers 1953 play, 'The Crucible'.
In an age where questions need to be asked, the driving issue is how they are answered!
This is what really matters!
In an age of ‘abundant caution’
we need more than ever a culture of ‘abundant balance’.
Ask anyone, everyone has a story!
With Fair Play
