SUMMARY
What causes an individual to be a risk-taker? In this timely and provocative new book, William C. Cockerham provides an up-to-date sociological examination of risk takers and risk taking processes through the lens of some of America's most dangerous behaviors: sexually transmitted diseases, alcohol, drug use, smoking, and extreme sports. Not content with simply discussing these subjects, Cockerham also creates an original and innovative risk response model designed to advance the sociological analysis of risk takers. Society of Risk-Takerscan be incorporated into a variety of courses in sociology, social problems, culture and society, and medical sociology.William C. Cockerham is the author of 'Society of Risk-Takers: Living Life on the Edge (Contemporary Social Issues)', published 2005 under ISBN 9780716755425 and ISBN 0716755424.
