World of Risk

We are all now living in a world of accelerating but unmanaged global risk. This book provides a fresh and creative look at risk and its impact on some the most critical challenges of our time. It outlines a new state-of-the-art model of global strategy and leadership and applies it to provide improved solutions to the rising set of risks inherent in economic crises, crime, disease, the environment, the poverty gap, the unpoliced cyberworld and the erosion of our traditional systems of culture, value and belief. Unlike prior analyses of that only highlight problems, World of Risk presents an architecture of practical solutions that can truly make this a better world for the next generation.
