Risky Conversations

Risky Conversations, The Law Social Psychology and Risk is book 5 in the series on the Social Psychology of Risk. The book is the result of three days of conversations between Rob Long, Greg Smith and Craig Ashhurst held in February 2016. So, the project has produced 22 videos, a book and talking book.

Rob, Greg and Craig gathered together with Rick Long of InVision Pictures and recorded conversations on twenty two topics in risk and safety. The recorded conversations were transcribed by Max and Sylvia Geyer and then the three authors wrote commentary into the margins of the book. So, this has really been an interactive project and exemplifies the essence of what it means to engage in Risky Conversations. (Please see a page shot below)
