Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has two aims. First, it shows how risk, crisis and security, may be linked in an organisational context. Second, it reviews the role of simulation and gaming in responding to these phenomena. Issues of risk management are implicit in every debate about how social services such as health, transport and public safety are to be managed, and how corporate activity is to be regulated. This book informs that debate by considering the relationships between risk and security. Includes case studies such as the Kings Cross underground disaster, September 11, Hong Kong race track fire, and Arthur Anderson and the London ambulance computer failure.
