With the advent of digital devices and software, self-tracking practices have gained new adherents and have spread into a wide array of social domains. The Quantified Self movement has emerged to promote 'self-knowledge through numbers'.
Exploring the profound societal changes brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, this book delves into the shifts in social norms, economic structures, and public health systems. It examines how communities adapted, highlighting resilience and innovation in response to unprecedented challenges. The narrative also addresses the disparities exposed by the crisis, providing insights into the future of societies as they navigate recovery and transformation in a post-pandemic world.
Risk asserts the ongoing importance of the analysis of risk in our age of permacrisis and mounting scepticism about experts and science, and calls for a 're-turn' to risk theory. This fully revised and expanded new edition includes a new chapter on risk information and denial in the context of the climate crisis and COVID-19 pandemic.
