Moore, Founder and CEO, Human Capital Forum "Combining technical integrity with common sense, Dan Borge has taken the arcane topic of risk management and transformed it into a lively, mainstream way of thinking about how we make choices every day-in financial markets, in life sciences, in simply choosing to cross a busy road when we're in a hurry. Quite simply the best introduction to risk management yet written."-John Herron Jr., Former Senior Managing Director and Head of BT Ventures, Bankers Trust Company Consultant, and Managing Partner of Elm Tree, LLC "Dan Borge builds the concepts of risk management in a very readable and interesting manner.
