Reviews
'...in Olympic Risks, Will Jennings provides an insightful analysis and commentary which is of relevance to scholars, policy makers, government agencies and public bodies, host cities and countries and mega event organizers. His work clearly and comprehensively accentuates the increasing influence of societal perceptions about risk and the impact of this on the governance of the Olympic Games.' - Tracey Taylor, UTS Business School, University of Technology, Sydney Australia, International Journal of Sport Policy and Politics
